'Simply said, this is a work of consummate mastery and high
utility. It will last for decades and beyond. All who have occasion
to study the early imperioal period are deeply in Loewe’s debt for
this great gift. The book and its author deserve the Prix Stanislas
Julien.'
Paul W. Kroll, Journal of the American Oriental Society, 2002.
'...une mine de renseignements inestimables sur tous les aspects de
la vie politique et sociale dans la Chine des Han Occidentaux.'

'…an invaluable resource to serious students and enlightened
amateurs alike…A source book of unprecedented depth and scope, the
biographical dictionary includes several features that make it far
superior to any comparable work known to me…This volume now appears
to me to be an unexpected boon of inestimable worth, and the debt
owed to Michael Loewe for his painstaking labours is huge.'
Michael Nylan, Journal Royal Asiatic Society, 2001.
