Features: The "A Concise History of China" is compiled by renowned historians and scholars. Following the chronology of historical development, it presents a panorama of Chinese history from 1.7 million years ago to 1999 in approximately five million words. This book truly connects the past and the present, yet it differs from typical historical monographs or textbooks. In terms of selection, it breaks away from the traditional focus on political history, encompassing major events from each period—economic reforms, famous wars, technological inventions, ethnic relations, religious and philosophical thoughts, literary and artistic achievements, daily customs, Sino-foreign exchanges, and activities of prominent figures. Rich in content, highlighted in focus, well-structured, and easily understandable, it is a highly scientific, serious, and accessible concise history of China, offering readers a brand-new historical read to understand China's past and present.
