This exploration, as Guingona shows, has previously been most heavily focused on American-Japanese-European perspectives and sources. Guingona intentionally turns his attention away from imperial\/colonialist narratives toward highlighting Filipino and Chinese figures. … this book is a novel decolonial interconnected history of China and the Philippines. It would be a good source for those wishing to better understand China's history of entanglements in Southeast Asia, and vice versa, as well as those interested in the histories of overseas ethnic Chinese communities.'

Through archival research in multiple languages, this innovative study advances a more nuanced reading of world history, reframing our understanding of the first half of the twentieth century by bringing interactions between Asian people to the fore and minimizing the role of those who historically dominated global history narratives. Through methodologically distinct case studies, Guingona presents a critique of Eurocentric approaches to world\/global history, shedding light on the interconnected history of China and the Philippines in a transformative period.
