"With the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as its central theme, this book presents a panoramic history of the Chinese nation spanning the twentieth century. In their unwavering pursuit of national independence, universal emancipation, and a country of power and shared prosperity, the Chinese people undertook an arduous journey that saw China fundamentally transformed by such historic events and experiences as the overthrow of the imperial system in the 1911 Revolution, the founding of the Peoples Republic of China, reform and
opening up, and the construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Massive in scope, meticulously documented, and rigorously written, this volume has few rivals among general histories of China in the twentieth century." -- Provided by publisher.
