The Chinese Revolution in Historical Perspective

by John E. Schrecker

Book Overview

Instead of applying Western concepts of historical analysis to China, Schrecker] seeks to understand modern history, both of China and of the West, through Chinese historiographical categories. The reader will appreciate not only the Chinese historiographical tradition but also the way this tradition enriches one's understanding of world history. An ambitious, much needed study.
