DESCRIPTION: In the past few decades, China has experienced remarkable growth. It is a 
 member of the United Nations, the World Trade Organization and the G-20. It 
 has the world’s largest standing army, the world’s second largest 
 economy and has reduced national poverty by more than half. How did China 
 emerge from the decline and unrest of the 19th century to become the global 
 power that we see today?\n\nAccording to John Delury and Orville Schell, 
 the country’s past provides an understanding of the forces that molded 
 modern China. Many influential figures in China’s history were driven by 
 their pursuit of wealth and power, and a desire for the restoration of 
 national greatness, ambitions that have come to define the modern Chinese 
 character. Delury and Schell will offer insights into how China’s past 
 shaped its present, and what we might expect in the future.\n\n\n
