Cambridge University Press, 1996-06-13- 1997. Hardcover. Used; Very Good . Ex-Library with usual markings and withdrawn stamp; no dust jacket sumptuously illustrated single-volume history, noted historian Patricia Ebrey traces the origins of Chinese culture from prehistoric times to the present. She follows its development from the rise of Confucianism, Buddhism, and the great imperial dynasties to the Mongol, Manchu, and Western intrusions and the modern communist state. Her scope is phenomenal--embracing Chinese arts, culture, economics, society and its treatment of women, foreign policy, emigration, and politics, including the key uprisings of 1919 and 1989 in Tiananmen Square. Both a comprehensive introduction to an extraordinary civilization, and an expert exploration of the continuities and disjunctures of Chinese history, Professor Ebrey"s book has become an indispensable guide to China past and present. Patricia Ebrey is Professor of East Asian Studies and History. oversized heavy book may require extra postage for overseas shipping. E- mail for quote.
