The emergence of the city marks the beginning of a civilisation.
The city, especially the leading cities of a country, is also where
the major features of a country are contained and where historical
events play out. This book introduces readers to the progress of
China's civilisation over more than 5000 years of history, through
the rise and development of its cities.From the prehistoric
Yangshuo and Longshan periods all the way to the People's Republic,
this book outlines major events and developments to highlight the
evolution of the Chinese civilisation. Using historical dynasties
and urban dynamics as vertical dimensions, it examines major
historical events, economic developments, territorial changes, and
other developments over China's long history. It also discusses the
uniqueness of China's history and compares its civilisations to
Western experiences.
