About the Book
The Chinese: Portrait of a People (1980) by journalist John Fraser provides a vivid and insightful account of China in the late 1970s. Based on Fraser's experiences as a foreign correspondent from 1977 to 1979, this 463-page hardback edition delves into the social, political, and economic landscapes of China during the post-Mao transition. Fraser captures the complexities of Chinese society, examining social norms, political tensions, economic struggles, and the country's perceptions of the West during a time of significant change.
With numerous illustrations, this book offers a compelling snapshot of a nation in transition, making it an essential read for anyone interested in understanding modern Chinese history and its evolution in the late 20th century.
