Features: In the 15th year of the Ming Wanli reign, or 1587 AD, was originally an extremely ordinary year in Chinese history. The author focuses on historical events and figures around that time, meticulously unraveling the various problems existing in the management of traditional Chinese society, and based on this, explores the experiences and lessons that modern China should take. The author is renowned for his "big history" perspective, which first emerges in this book: "Narrative may be detailed, but conclusions should look far beyond the immediate." Since its publication in mainland China in the early 1980s, the book has received widespread acclaim and has had a broad impact in both academia and the cultural sphere.
