Map, xiii + 255pp, index, very good copy in dustjacket. "Over a quarter of the human race lives within the borders of China, the empire that has outlasted all its rivals from the Roman to the British. But, claims the author of this sweeping and provocative study, the Chinese empire is in terminal crisis, a crisis that goes much…deeper than the decline of the current regime and threatens the survival both of China as a unified state and of the high tradition and culture that span more than three thousand years."

The ver y successes of pre-modern China's productive technology have left the present wi th an ecological nightmare that recent economic growth has only exacerbated. This remarkable book, by a very experienced observer of Chinese history and cult ure, greatly deepens our understanding of recent events and the challenge of the future.
