Features: The "history" we speak of today is the "news" that happened in the past. Old "news" records the footsteps of bygone years and reflects the side views of past societies. From it, people can not only read the changes and turmoil they once experienced but also glimpse the unknown social customs and folk culture of that time. "The Inspiration of Reference" is vast and magnificent, a classic of the century, divided into twelve volumes and twelve (note: the original text has "" which should be translated as "volumes" or "parts" depending on context, here assuming "volumes"). It spans from the early 1950s to the late 1980s, collecting reports from various "foreign media" on China's current affairs. This book is the twelfth volume.
