Znakomita książka, w kt�rej zas�b podanych informacji i zakres specjalistycznych badań zostały ograniczone do wielkości, przy jakiej możliwe jest podążanie za narracją. Profesor Dillon napisał klarowną i dogłębną historię Chin w bardzo szerokim ujęciu. Studenci odniosą korzyść zar�wno z konsekwentnie prowadzonej narracji, jak i czytelnego, choć zarazem elokwentnego stylu. Jest to jedna z najlepszych książek dotyczących wsp�łczesnych Chin, jakie się do tej pory pojawiły.Gregor Benton, profesor historii Chin, Cardiff University.
