This vast ocean, both connecting and separating nations, has shaped many countries' cultures and ideologies through the movement of goods, people, ideas and religions across the sea.The Indian Ocean moves from a discussion of physical elements, its shape, winds, currents and boundaries, to a history from pre-Islamic times to the modern period of European dominance. Going far beyond pure maritime history, this compelling survey is an invaluable addition to political, cultural and economic world history. 410 0$aSeas in history. 607 $aIndian Ocean Region$xHistory 607 $aIndian Ocean$xNavigation$xHistory 676 $a909/.09824 700 $aPearson$b M.
