Features: It is the work of historians to describe and explain the past of humanity, especially for China, this great nation with thousands of years of civilization. This beautifully illustrated social history of China attempts to highlight the fundamental aspects of Chinese history from prehistoric times to before 1949, with the main focus on three aspects: social change, social structure, and social life. Each era is supported by its unique content, forming a distinctive framework and style. The authors combine a rigorous scientific attitude with a lively and engaging presentation style. They emphasize knowledge but do not limit themselves to a general knowledge book; they emphasize academic foundations but are not purely academic works. Highly readable yet not a "" that contradicts historical facts. They offer fresh insights but avoid speculative or superficial arguments. As a result, the powerful vitality that history should possess in the hearts of the public is naturally brought to the fore.
