No detailed description available for "A Documentary History of Chinese Communism".
America s top China watcher, the renowned "pandit" of modern Chinese history, here provides an unrivaled overview of revolutionary China and Chinese American relations. His reviews and critical commentary scrutinize our always fascinated, often puzzled attitude toward this newly emergent superpower.
In this enlarged 4th edition Fairbank includes a new Preface and an Epilogue that bring the book up to date through 1982. He has also updated the bibliography and indexes. This book stands almost alone as a history of China, an analysis of Chinese society, and an account of Sino-American relations.
John King Fairbank was the West's doyen on China, and this book is the full and final expression of his lifelong engagement with this vast ancient civilization. The distinguished historian Merle Goldman brings the book up to date and provides an epilogue discussing the changes in contemporary China that will shape the nation in the years to come.
