Chinese history is packed with dramatic stories of individuals, including the prominent (emperors, generals, scholars, and artists), and the humble (peasants, artisans, mothers, courtesans, and concubines). In this history of China from Neolithic times to the present, Paul Ropp uses the stories of people - groups and individuals - to illustrate key themes of China's political, social, and cultural history.
