Beskrivning
Complete ready reference covering Chinese history, economics, politics, culture, and prevalent social problems … a "must-have" addition to any global studies collection.
Throughout its imperial golden ages, China was the world's most developed nation, home to advanced technologies, a robust economy, and thriving cities. Its thousands of years of cultural and artistic achievements combined with its vastness and ethnic complexity have made China both fascinating and forbidding for those encountering it for the first time.
This new volume offers readers a concise, single-stop introduction to Chinese history, culture, economics, politics, and social issues. As they trace China's history from the creation stories of ancient Chinese myths to the Communist upheaval of the 20th century, readers will learn how the country has changed—and not changed—from early to modern times, and what life throughout China is like today.
