This book presents a concise introduction to contemporary China. It
is intended as a first book for those coming new to the subject,
providing the essential information that most people need to know,
without going into excessive detail. Its coverage includes the
economy, society, politics and international relations; China's
history, especially the twentieth century; and Taiwan and Hong Kong
as well as the People's Republic of China. The book provides an
up-to-date and clear guide to the often bewildering changes which
have taken place in China in the late twentieth and early
twenty-first centuries. It draws on the enormous body of empirical
and theoretical research that is being carried out by economists,
political scientists and sociologists on contemporary China, but is
itself written in non-technical and accessible language. It does
not assume any previous knowledge of China and explanations of
Chinese terms are provided throughout the book. It includes a map,
a chronology, a glossary of Chinese terms, biographical notes on
key figures, and a guide to further reading.
