"Ottoman-Southeast Asian Relations: Sources from the Ottoman Archives, is a product of meticulous study of İsmail Hakkı Kadı, A.C.S. Peacock and other contributors on historical documents from the Ottoman archives. The work contains documents in Ottoman-Turkish, Malay, Arabic, French, English, Tausung, Burmese and Thai languages, each introduced by an expert in the language and history of the related country. The work contains documents hitherto unknown to historians as well as others that have been unearthed before but remained confined to the use of limited scholars who had access to the Ottoman archives.

Utiliza la socioepistemología como marco teórico para su abordaje, y por el carácter sistémico de este enfoque, prioriza dos aspectos fundamentales a saber: el carácter científico y la cosmovisión de la cultura maya."--Back cover
