It takes a fresh look at ancient customs, such as two-parent leadership in the home, and the practice of foot-binding, while discussing the uniqueness of traditions like the Great Wall and the complex system of Mandarin bureaucracy. The author also explores the opposing forces of innovation and tradition, along with other insights into this age-old culture.
