The practice of selling young daughters was common in southern China in the 19th and 20th centuries. Although the practice was formally abolished in 1923, the underlying social evaluation and attitudes survive and their importance is no less today than it was yesterday.

- v***v (2079)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
