description: To understand China we need to step into the palace of her culture and explore her rich history. With this in mind a group of scholars from China and America have put this book together as a kind of primer on all things China from art and science to religion and society. They have tried to offer here a panoramic view of the totality of Chinese culture using only the most representative material to introduce to the West the most typical aspects of Chinese civilization and life.
