Good points: well written, short and global. I learned bit about SE Asia.

Bad points: shallow. I would have appreciated more view of what connections meant for people & life. Presented as true, quite a few minor things that are contested.

How much someone enjoys may depend on how much world history they have read. Book is good for a quick introduction.
