The China Reader: The Reform Era
written by Orville Schell, edited by David L. Shambaugh

Perhaps no nation in recent history has undergone as total a transformation as has China in the past twenty-five years. For China's leaders -- and for its 1.3 billion citizens -- the death of Mao Zedong, the rise of Deng Xiaoping, and unprecedented economic growth have spawned new complexities.

The China Reader: The Reform Era is a compilation of the most important documents, articles, and statements on China between 1972 and 1997. Here are the voices of the experts, from Chinese analyses of the fall of Soviet Communism to Western exposes of an ecological crisis that threatens global weather patterns into the next millennia. Here too are the artifacts of an era, from regulations to control Chinese cyberspace to a Party member's Orwellian justification of the military crackdown in Tiananmen Square. Authoritative and comprehensive, The China Reader is a timely guide to understanding a nation in the throes of change.
