For funding the composition of this textbook with a release from one course in 2019- 2020, I thank Pamela Radcliff and Edward Watts, successive Chairs of the Department of History; Dean of Arts and Humanities Della Coletta; and Dean of Undergraduate Education John Moore. Thanks to Niall Chithelen, who managed the permissions process for me, and suggested some images. Thanks also to Allegra Swift of the UCSD library guided the permissions, Fair Use, and Open Access processes.

I am especially grateful to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for putting so many of its images into the public domain. I hope that some students will visit there and come to love it as much as I do.

I thank the following people for commenting on draft chapters: Eugene Anderson (all), Miranda Brown (4 and 5), Mark Byington (4 and 6), Suzanne Cahill (all), Elaine Guo (1 - 7), Yanxing Liu (1-5), Leonora Tindall (1 and 6), Charles Sanft (3), and J.B. Schneewind (1-5). Most of the maps were redone by Siu (Way) Wu, to whom I am very grateful. I also thank the Facebook groups called Sinologists and Korean History for Sinologists. Some of those who helpfully answered questions for me are: Chen Song, Keith Knapp (who has been answering my questions for the last two decades), Charles Sanft, and Sarah Thal. Some students in HILD 10, Fall 2019, and a few other readers sent comments and corrected typos. Remaining errors are my responsibility.
