Reader Reviews
The authors no doubt had good intentions, but didn't execute well. There was no one on this team of writers who was fluent in English, which makes the going tough at times. While there is information here which the hardcore student will find worthwhile, be warned that it is a challenging read nonetheless. The writers also wrote from the viewpoint of the Chinese Communist government, with occasional disparagements of Western governments and their policies in China thrown in. Add to this the frequent reference to various Chinese dynasties without background explanation or approximate years, and you have a challenging book with mostly accurate information written by a committee for committees. I'm not a committee.
