From the Back Cover

This book explores first-hand Dunhuang manuscripts from a period of over 700 years, from 220 to 960, and as such makes a major contribution to passing on and promoting ancient Chinese culture. Perfectly combining four ingredients: an accessible writing style; a comprehensive set of typical examples and pictures; sound field research and culturally stimulating approaches; and authentically archaeological and philological results, this thorough and engaging book appeals to all the readers undertaking Dunhuang studies.
