From a Western perspective, China remains a land of mystique. If we observe its development and affairs at face value in the paradigm of a Western reality, it is impossible to fathom the sheer pace of China’s industrialization. This book is an insight into not only the historical events that have shaped China, but into the Chinese mindset, and the ideology that continues to shape China today. It is an insight into the past century of revolutionary events, but more importantly, it demystifies thousands of years of culturally ingrained ideology and unrealized developments of the past that made it not only possible, but inevitable. Author Yang Liguang takes us back along the Zhongshan Trail on a journey started by Sun Yat-sen, which lit the way for China’s development over the past century and continues to guide it into the twenty-first.
