Chinese society and culture are evolving with a booming economy, expansion, production of consumer and industrial goods, and a growing influence upon the world.The History of China enables readers to delve into the rich history of this powerful nation.China is both the world?s oldest continuing civilization and an emerging global super power. Over the last two millennia, this rich and complex nation has often been the wealthiest and most populous country on earth - and within a few decades, China may surpass all other nations as the most powerful in the world.In this third edition of The History of China, readers will find a general survey of China?s long history, ranging from accounts of ancient Chinese civilization to individual dynasties, and its whirlwind transition to modernity and belated arrival into the international community. An extensive new chapter discusses the emergence of Xi Jinping as China?s paramount leader and the bold new directions in which he is taking the country and offers some speculations or predictions about where China is headed in the future. Readers can also access an appendix of notable people in the history of China, a timeline of historical events, and a bibliographic essay. Ideal for high school and undergraduate students, this volume offers a lively, engaging narrative of the rich history of Chinese civilization through to the 2010s.
