Focusing on the thirteenth-century Mongol Empire, this study explores the significant cultural exchanges between Iran and China. It highlights how the Mongol rulers facilitated the flow of commodities, ideologies, and technologies across Eurasia, fostering collaboration among scholars and specialists. The book examines various fields, including cartography, agriculture, and astronomy, while questioning the motivations behind the Mongols' reliance on sedentary experts to enrich their court culture and promote cross-cultural interactions.
