Understanding contemporary China - Robert E Gamer

The new edition of Understanding Contemporary China has been thoroughly revised to reflect a half-decade of significant events and trends, both domestically and in the international arena. The result is an accessible, well-grounded exploration of the most crucial issues affecting China today.

The authors assume no prior knowledge on the part of the reader, making the book a perfect choice for interdisciplinary ""Introduction to China"" courses, as well as for courses in political science and sociology. Numerous maps and photographs enhance the text.
