Synopsis
This is the first of two volumes in this major Cambridge history dealing with the decline of the Ch'ing empire. It opens with a survey of the Ch'ing empire in China and Inner Asia at its height, in about 1800. Contributors study the complex interplay of foreign invasion, domestic rebellion and Ch'ing decline and restoration. Special reference is made to the Peking administration, the Canton trade and the early treaty system, the Taiping, Nien and other rebellions, and the dynasty's survival in uneasy cooperation with the British, Russian, French, American and other invaders. Each chapter is written by a specialist from the international community of sinological scholars. No knowledge of Chinese is necessary; for readers with Chinese, proper names and terms are identified with their characters in the glossary, and full references to Chinese, Japanese and other works are given in the bibliographies. Numerous maps illustrate the text, and there are a bibliographical essays describing the source materials on which each author's account is based., This is the first of two volumes in this major Cambridge history dealing with the decline of the Ch'ing empire. Modern China's history begins with the processes recorded here of economic growth, social change and the deterioration of central government.

- l***m (56)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseSeamless transaction and even better than what was described!! Seller shipped fast, in clean packaging and the item was in brand new condition— it still had the plastic wrap and everything!! It was a very pleasant surprise :) The disk quality was flawless as well! With it being from Germany I wasn't sure if the region would play on my device (thankfully it did!!) but that was a risk I was cognisant of, and willing to take! Will keep an eye out for future items from this seller!
- 4***7 (2)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was impressed by this seller, my order was packaged and dropped off at post office by end of day the same day I placed my order. The book was in excellent condition, minus a small bend on back cover but not a big issue for me( not the sellers fault, USPS isn't very careful when handling packages ). Will for sure be doing business with them again. Pricing was fair considering this was an OOP cover.The Mindfuck Series Paperback (#156619046835)
