Since the late 1970s, China has undergone significant changes. Four decades of reform and opening-up have transformed the country economically, socially, and culturally. China Today traces China’s unique journey toward modernization with a focus on contemporary China after 1949. The book aims to provide an overview of China’s current urban, economic, technological, and cultural landscapes for international readers. The 18 chapters cover a wide range of topics—from ethnic festivals and the education system to e-commerce and scientific innovations—with each chapter well-illustrated with photographs and images, presenting the vibrancy and expansiveness of China’s transformations over the decades.<br />China Today also discusses China’s plans and visions for the future of not only the nation itself, but also the world. As China embarks on a new era of reform and opening-up, it will engage more actively with the world as an increasingly important global player.
