About the Author:
Senior Lecturer in Geography with reference to China at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, and Editor of The China Quarterly
Review:
`Slender it may be, but it is not short of insights. This is particularly true of the Overview by Lucian W. Pye. If one could recommend to students or the educated public only one short essay about China during the past fifty years, this might be it'

Overall the volume presents a picture of the PRC that is not as healthy as optimists maintain nor in such a disastrous state as many pessimists have put forward.Increasingly, external developments will be shaping the pace of change in the People's Republic. The ability of the government to continue to respond in a measured fashion to change will be necessary if the PRC is to thrive in the twenty-first century.
