Synopsis
This authoritative companion meets the rising demand for accurate information and historical facts as China now takes on an ever-increasing role in world affairs. Covering events from the last days of Imperial China to the aftermath of the Mao era, the events in Tiananmen Square in 1989 and the latest economic and political reforms, MODERN CHINA is a superb guide to a key global power. "China will have a huge impact on all our lives in the 21st century. Whether you're a businessman, politician, student or general reader, you could not possibly have a better guide to China than Graham Hutchings. His book - the product of many years of scholarship and first-hand experience - is sharply written, perceptive and judicious" CHRIS PATTEN
