He regarded Western~inspired educational reform as fundamental to preserving the Chinese state. In this study Mr. Ayers examines Chang's extensive proposals for nationwide reform, which culminated in the epoch~making abolition of the examination system in 1905. The author presents a detailed study of Chang's early background as a scholar and provincial education director. He provides information on Chang's later career as a viceroy, adviser to the Manchu throne, and founder of numerous schools and military academies. Meticulously documented, the volume is a remarkable exposition of the Confucian mind adjusting to modern circumstances. As such, it is vital to the study of educational and cultural change in modern China. Born in China and formerly a journalist there, Mr. Ayers is with the United States Information Agency.
