WALDER ANDREW G
China Under Mao: A Revolution Derailed
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2015. Softcover. Brand new book. China's Communist Party seized power in 1949 after a long period of guerrilla insurgency followed by full-scale war but the Chinese revolution was just beginning. China Under Mao narrates the rise and fall of the Maoist revolutionary state from 1949 to 1976�an epoch of startling accomplishments and disastrous failures steered by many forces but dominated above all by Mao Zedong. Mao's China Andrew Walder argues was defined by two distinctive institutions established during the first decade of Communist Party rule: a Party apparatus that exercised firm sometimes harsh discipline over its members and cadres; and a socialist economy modeled after the Soviet Union. Although a large national bureaucracy had oversight of this authoritarian system Mao intervened strongly at every turn. The doctrines and political organization that produced Mao's greatest achievements�victory in the civil war the creation of China's first unified modern state a historic transformation of urban and rural life�also generated his worst failures: the industrial depression and rural famine of the Great Leap Forward and the violent destruction and stagnation of the Cultural Revolution. Misdiagnosing China's problems as capitalist restoration and prescribing continuing class struggle against imaginary enemies as the solution Mao ruined much of what he had built and created no viable alternative. At the time of his death he left China backward and deeply divided. Andrew G. Walder is Denise O'Leary and Kent Thiry Professor of Sociology at Stanford University and Senior Fellow at Stanford's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies. "Perspicacious scholarship by the preeminent American historical sociologist working on the People's Republic of China. A balanced critical account of events of baffling complexity and a sophisticated analysis of uniquely solid empirical data. If reading is indeed the basics for all learning then this is the book to read in order to learn why Mao in the end accomplished so little of what he had hoped to achieve after 1949 and why his legacy remains so controversial."�Michael Schoenhals Lund University "This is a masterful synthesis of the literature on Mao Zedong's China and of Walder's own extensive sociological research. He combines Mao-centered political history with close attention to the organizational characteristics of the Communist Party which explain its responsiveness to Mao Zedong's often disastrous initiatives. In the author's view Mao was a 'rigidly dogmatic leader with extremely narrow and outdated ideas.' The book is replete with similarly incisive judgments. These will no doubt provoke controversy but in the end they are likely to be accepted."�Thomas P. Bernstein Columbia University Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2015 paperback

Waley A.
The Book of Songs, Translated from the Chinese
8vo, cloth in dj, third impression of the 1937 ed. ; octavo; 358 pp (including index); a collection of ancient Chinese songs dating from 800 to 600 B.C. One of the five Confucian classics, The Book of Songs (Shijing) is the oldest collection of poetry in world literature and the finest treasure of traditional songs left from antiquity. Where the other Confucian classics treat outward things: deeds, moral precepts, the way the world works,” as Stephen Owen tells us in his foreword, The Book of Songs is the classic of the human heart and the human mind.”
