From internationally renowned historian Frank Dikötter, winner of the Samuel Johnson Prize, a myth shattering history of China from the death of Chairman Mao to Xi Jinping. Through decades of direct experience of the People’s Republic combined with extraordinary access to hundreds of hitherto unseen documents in communist party archives, the author offers a riveting account of China’s rise from the disaster of the Cultural Revolution. He takes us inside the country’s unprecedented four-decade economic transformation-from rural villages to industrial metropoles and elite party conclave-that vaulted the nation from 126th largest economy in the world to second largest.
