Publisher Description: The Berkshire Dictionary of Chinese Biography (1979-2015) provides a riveting new way to understand twenty-first-century China and a personal look at the changes that have taken place since the Reform and Opening Up era started in 1979. One hundred key individuals from this period -- including politicians and government officials, film directors, activists, writers, and entrepreneurs from the mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan -- were selected by an international group of experts, and the stories were written by more than 70 authors in 14 countries. |
