Modern China : all that matters / Jonathan Clements. by Clements, Jonathan, 1971- Hodder Education ; McGraw-Hill, 2013.

ISBN:  9781444187045 (pbk.) 144418704X (pbk.) Description:  151 p. : ill. ; 18 cm. Notes:  Includes index. Summary:  "Author Jonathan Clements presents China as the Chinese themselves see their country. He explains the key issues of national reconstruction; the Cold War, the Cultural Revolution, and the dizzying spectacle of China’s economic reform. Clements offers a Chinese perspective on such events as the handover of Hong Kong, and chronicles the historical events that continue to resonate today in Chinese politics, economics, culture and quality of life. A final chapter examines China’s role in the global marketplace, its indirect effect on foreign economies from Australia to America to Africa, and its growing military might, with an assessment of the damage done to its environment and population. In his most provocative assertion, Clements suggests that China’s contemporary problems are not the trials of a developing nation, but a possible vision of our own future."--From publisher.
