The Cornell East Asia Series (CEAS) is pleased to present a collection of online books, in searchable, downloadable format. These titles were originally published in the Cornell East Asia Series, many back when we were called the China-Japan Program and the series title was the East Asia Papers. Though of lasting literary and historical value, many of these titles have been long out of print and unavailable. We are very happy to make these works available again as a free online resource. The titles were selected by the CEAS faculty editorial board, and were digitized with the permission of the individual authors.

Most books are text-only, some include pictures and maps. The books, mostly scholarly monographs, cover a broad range of topics, from historical and literary translations to modern economic analysis.
