520 _a"Revolution and Its Past is a comprehensive study of China from the last quarter of the eighteenth century through to 2018. A fascinating and dramatic narrative, it compels interest both as a history of an ancient civilization developing into a modern nation-state and as an account of how the Chinese as a people have struggled and continue to work to find their identity in the modern world. Updated throughout, supported by maps, images, tables and suggestions for further reading, and written in an engaging, concise and authoritative style, Revolution and Its Past is the ideal textbook for all students of the history of modern China"--
