The knowledge inside opened my eyes to the fact that history can be so interesting! For example, Sun Wukong may be "imported" from India, which reminds me of the scene when I was a child and watched "Journey to the West" with my cousin. We always debate the origin of Sun Wukong, and now it seems that the answer is really unexpected. This book is really a good read for studying things and seeking knowledge. I recommend it to you!
