From Moon Cakes to Mao to Modern China: An Introduction to Chinese Civilization

Publisher: CN Times Books Inc.

To understand China, we need to step into the palace of her culture and explore her rich history.

They have tried to offer here a panoramic view of the totality of Chinese culture, using only the most representative material, to introduce to the West the most typical aspects of Chinese civilization and life.
