Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the misunderstanding of Chinese character as a source of conflict and friction with foreign nations. The author explores the reasons for this, including the differences in culture and the way China has been misjudged by the West. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex and often contradictory nature of the Chinese people, arguing that they are neither the docile and submissive people they are often portrayed as, nor are they the inscrutable and mysterious figures of Western imagination. Instead, the author argues that the Chinese are a deeply complex and multifaceted people, with a rich and sophisticated culture and a long and proud history. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about China and its people. It challenges stereotypes and provides a nuanced and insightful look at one of the world's oldest and most fascinating cultures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330140451_0
