"A concise (even at 800 pages) overview of Chinese history from the end of the Ming Dynasty in the 17th century to the 1989 demonstrations. It is an excellent introduction into modern Chinese history particularly because it is given in a Chinese context and is not Eurocentric. While I would have enjoyed more coverage of certain topics, such as the Boxer Rebellion and the Cultural Revolution, Spence manages to cover a lot of detail in a highly readable manner."
