Spend 24 hours with the ancient Chinese. Travel back to AD 17,
during the fourth year of the reign of Wang Mang of the Han
dynasty, a vibrant and innovative era full of conflicts and
contradictions. But as different as the Han culture might have been
to other great ancient civilizations, the inhabitants of ancient
China faced the same problems as people have for time immemorial:
earning enough money, coping with workplace dramas and keeping your
home in order ... although the equivalent in this era was more
about bribing inspectors, avoiding bullying from abusive watchmen
and trying to keep your house from being looted by Huns. In each
chapter we meet one of 24 citizens of this ancient culture, from
the midwife to the soldier, the priest to the performer and the
bronze-worker to the tomb looter, and see what an average day in
ancient China was really like.
