The Penguin History of Modern China: The Fall and Rise of a Great Power, 1850 to the Present

內容簡介

內容簡介 In 1850, China was the "sick man of Asia." Now it is set to become the most powerful nation on earth. The Penguin History of Modern China shows how turbulent that journey has been. For 150 years China has endured as victim of oppression, war, and famine. This makes its current position as arguably the most important global superpower all the more extraordinary.
