Owner's name on front end page, else unmarked. xv, 358 p., ill., 22 cm. <br> "This is a social history of China, presenting the main lines of development of the Chinese social structure from the earliest times to the present day. Political history is not neglected, but is only one aspect of the picture which is presented: social and cultural changes are given more prominence. The book discusses the origins of the present regime and development in China in the last years, but only as a part of the total development of China. The text is based upon the study of original Chinese sources, the work of modern Chinese and Japanese scholars, and also the research of western scholars. The work of one generation of scholars has greatly changed our picture of China; deepened our knowledge and insight into the fundamental processes; contributed to our understanding of what has happened in the last years." - University of California Press
