Our journal “Crossroads – Studies on the History of Exchange Relations in the East Asian World”, has finally moved to Brill Publishers, and we slightly changed the title to “Crossroads – An Interdisciplinary Journal of Asian Interactions”. Our first issue with Brill, Crossroads: Interdisciplinary Journal of Asian Interactions (CJAI), vol. 19 and 20, has just come out, see https://brill.com/view/journals/cjai/aop/issue.xml.

Volumes 2 and 3 of “Crossroads – History of Interactions across the Silk Routes” have been published: Paul David Buell, Eugene N. Anderson, Montserrat de Pablo Moya, and Moldir Oskenbay, Crossroads of Cuisine The Eurasian Heartland, the Silk Roads and Food (vol. 2); Paul David Buell and Eugene N. Anderson, Arabic Medicine in China Tradition, Innovation, and Change (vol. 3); see https://brill.com/view/serial/CROS.
