商品簡介
China, the most populous country in the world, is undergoing dramatic changes, and we all need to watch carefully. This is the first book to focus on the dramatic changes in Chinese society and families over the past 30 years that is written from an insider perspective, the perspective of a renowned Chinese scholar and her eminent research team. The book is also unique because it uses national statistics and data from large-scale surveys to systematically and comprehensively illustrate these radical and extraordinary changes in Chinese family structure and dynamics.
