History of Kyrgyzstan. Lecture Book

      Аннотация: "Prof. Cholpon Chotaeva's History of Kyrgyzstan: Lecture Book is a first-of-its-kind text. A pedagogical volume in the English language to teach the history of the Kyrgyz nation, although specifically intended for secondary school teachers and university lecturers, its real value lies in the fact that it is the first-known attempt in a language other than Russian and Kyrgyz to lay out its topic in a systematic faction. The difficulty of such an enterprise is clear to anyone even remotely familiar with the debates of Central Asian historiography, the often conflicting viewpoints about which Prof. Chotaeva attempts to navigate and sometimes combine. No easy feat, indeed." - Christopher Schwartz, Journalist and PhD Candidate, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven
