In Great Power China and the World, the author tells thirteen different stories about the Chinese and those foreigners who have markedly influenced the country's place in the world. Brooke begins in the thirteenth century with the ruler Khubilai, who subjugated China to the Mongol Empire, and takes the story through seven centuries, telling of Marco Polo and the Mongol princess, the plague that raged in the Middle East and Europe and struck China, the "Chinese Christopher Columbus" - the imperial eunuch Zheng He, the horse trade, maps, missionaries, pirates and, of course, the development of China's relations with the rest of the world.

Canadian Timothy Brook sincerely believes himself and convinces the reader that neither China can exist apart from the rest of the world, nor the world without China.
