BICKERS ROBERT
Out Of China: How The Chinese Ended The Era Of Western Domination
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2017. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Nationalism matters in China and what matters in China matters to everyone. China's new nationalism Robert Bickers shows is rooted not in its present power but in shameful memories of its former weaknesses. Invaded humiliated and looted in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by foreign powers China looks out at the twenty-first century through the lens of the past. History matters deeply to Beijing's current rulers and Out of China explains why. Bickers tracks the long often agonizing process by which the Chinese regained control of their own country. He describes the corrupt lurid modernity of prewar Shanghai the often tiny patches of extraterritorial land controlled by foreign powers the entrep�ts of Hong Kong and Macao and the myriad means�through armed threats technology and legal chicanery�by which China was kept subservient until gradually it emerged from Western control. This plural and partial subjugation of China is a story that involves not only European powers and Japan but also the United States. This complex history must be grasped not to atone for the sins of the past but to recognize China's internationalized landscapes with all their contradictions violence cosmopolitanism and ambitions. The story of the foreign presence in China in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is too important to be left in the hands of the Chinese party-state and its approved script. Out of China is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand what shapes China's view of the world in the twenty-first century. 576 pages 6-1/8 x 9-1/4 inches 15 color illustrations 5 duotones 16 halftones. Robert Bickers is Professor of History at the University of Bristol. "Bickers's thoughtful engaging and well-written analysis helps to separate fact from myth when it comes to understanding the nature of Chinese nationalism� Out of China is a panoramic examination of the increasingly powerful articulation of China's national identity in the twentieth century and the country's painful encounter with Western imperialism� Out of China underpinned by extensive research in archives and written in warm and often witty prose seeks neither to condemn nor celebrate the Western presence in China. Instead it is an important reminder that even when our shared history is forgotten in the West it is very much remembered�and sometimes resented�in Beijing and Shanghai today."�Rana Mitter The New York Review of Books "A superb history of foreign power in China."�Gavin Jacobson The Times Literary Supplement "A beautifully written history of China's 20th-century interactions with the outside world. But instead of the narrow legitimacy-enhancing story peddled by the Chinese Communist party Bickers tells a far more complex tale of the forces of attraction rejection and interdependence that have consistently defined China's varied dealings with the world� Out of China demolishes many favorite motifs of official history in China� Interweaving political and cultural history the detailed narratives of this book are essential correctives to the tale spun by Beijing's current rulers. Each regime chronicled in this book sought to contort history to serve its purposes and Xi's today is no exception� Teeming with nuances while assailing the Communist party's nationalistic narrative Bickers' book is a reminder of the importance of uncovering the past's messy contradictory truths."�Julian Gewirtz Financial Times "Robert Bickers is a pre-eminent chronicler of China� A great story told with splashes of color and sharp wit."�Jonathan Fenby Literary Review "This is a bold endeavor to try to cover an entire century in one volume yet Bickers does a good job providing detailed narratives which reveal that Chinese nationalism was a corollary of foreign intervention invasion and atrocities� An all-embracing and fascinating tale."�P. F. Shan Choice Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2017 hardcover

RUDOLPH JENNIFER & MICHAEL SZONYI EDITORS
The China Questions: Critical Insights Into A Rising Power
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2018. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Many books offer information about China but few make sense of what is truly at stake. The questions addressed in this unique volume provide a window onto the challenges China faces today and the uncertainties its meteoric ascent on the global horizon has provoked. In only a few decades the most populous country on Earth has moved from relative isolation to center stage. Thirty-six of the world's leading China experts�all affiliates of the renowned Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University�answer key questions about where this new superpower is headed and what makes its people and their leaders tick. They distill a lifetime of cutting-edge scholarship into short accessible essays about Chinese identity culture environment society history or policy. Can China's economic growth continue apace Can China embrace the sacrifices required for a clean environment Will Taiwan reunite with the mainland How do the Chinese people understand their position in today's global marketplace How do historical setbacks and traditional values inform China's domestic and foreign policy Some of the essays address issues of importance to China internally revolving around the Communist Party's legitimacy the end of the one-child policy and ethnic tensions. Others focus on China's relationship with other nations particularly the United States. If America pulls back from its Asian commitments how will China assert its growing strength in the Pacific region China has already captured the world's attention. The China Questions takes us behind media images and popular perceptions to provide insight on fundamental issues. Jennifer Rudolph is Associate Professor of modern Chinese political history at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Michael Szonyi is Professor of Chinese History at Harvard University. "Sound bites about China spoken by either the media or politicians can fall into the trap of oversimplification. This can result in assumptions that like the tip of an iceberg do not reveal the myriad complexities below the surface� The China Questions provides a more nuanced and accessible perspective of the issues China is facing ranging from political and economic to cultural and societal."�Bernice Chan The South China Morning Post "This collection is impressive for its comprehensiveness with contributors providing numerous pointed observations� This is a highly informative readable collection for scholars and nonscholars alike."�Publishers Weekly "This book cuts through the cacophony of information misinformation and nonsense on China that circulates in our modern world to give us reliable answers to crucial questions about one of the world's most important nations. Written by a who's-who of experts on a variety of topics it's also a pleasure to read. With stylish essays on everything from elite politics to the classical Chinese novel it should be on the shelf of anyone seeking to understand this fast-rising superpower."�Ian Johnson author of The Souls of China "The China Questions is packed with erudite yet accessible commentaries on issues ranging from literature to ethnic diversity. The topical reach is impressive; readers will come away with information concerning novel ways of thinking about everything from early philosophical traditions to modern visions of utopia and dystopia from international relations to struggles for political legitimacy."�Jeffrey Wasserstrom author of China in the 21st Century Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2018 hardcover

KUHN DIETER
The Age Of Confucian Rule: The Song Transformation Of China
Belknap Press Cambridge: 2009. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Just over a thousand years ago the Song dynasty emerged as the most advanced civilization on earth. Within two centuries China was home to nearly half of all humankind. In this concise history we learn why the inventiveness of this era has been favorably compared with the European Renaissance which in many ways the Song transformation surpassed. With the chaotic dissolution of the Tang dynasty the old aristocratic families vanished. A new class of scholar-officials�products of a meritocratic examination system�took up the task of reshaping Chinese tradition by adapting the precepts of Confucianism to a rapidly changing world. Through fiscal reforms these elites liberalized the economy eased the tax burden and put paper money into circulation. Their redesigned capitals buzzed with traders while the education system offered advancement to talented men of modest means. Their rationalist approach led to inventions in printing shipbuilding weaving ceramics manufacture mining and agriculture. With a realist's eye they studied the natural world and applied their observations in art and science. And with the souls of diplomats they chose peace over war with the aggressors on their borders. Yet persistent military threats from these nomadic tribes�which the Chinese scorned as their cultural inferiors�redefined China's understanding of its place in the world and solidified a sense of what it meant to be Chinese. The Age of Confucian Rule is an essential introduction to this transformative era. "A scholar should congratulate himself that he has been born in such a time" Zhao Ruyu 1194. 23 halftones 10 maps. Dieter Kuhn is Professor and Chair of Chinese Studies University of W�rzburg. One hopes Kuhn's work will find a larger audience for he has much to teach to general readers world historians and China specialists alike."�Mark Halperin American Historical Review "The first four chapters of this well-researched clearly written book present a balanced synopsis of the political institutional and military history of Song and its neighbors during some three centuries when this was 'the most advanced civilization on earth.' The remaining eight chapters deal with thought life cycle rituals poetry and painting education and the examination system dynastic capitals the world of production money and taxation private lives and the public sphere. The author's enthusiasm is matched by his erudition and outstanding expertise in Song material culture as he ranges widely from the plethora of goods for sale in bustling shops and markets to the origins of foot binding and finds space for dental hygiene as well as tomb construction� Scholars already versed in the period can learn much from this book while those just beginning to delve into Chinese history are very well served."�C. Schirokauer Choice "The Age of Confucian Rule is a book that everyone who teaches Chinese history should have on his or her shelf and consult frequently� The attention Kuhn gives material culture is refreshing and helps him to make his case for the importance of China in Song times."�Patricia Ebrey International Journal of Asian Studies "An admirable account of the Song dynasty� This series on China brilliantly overseen by Timothy Brook is a credit to Harvard University Press. Above all it encourages us to think of China in different ways."�Jonathan Mirsky Literary Review "One of the leading historians of the Song period offers an empirically rich and well-informed book that is especially good on material culture and the history of technology. Kuhn offers strong overviews of the transformation of the capital cities education and examination commerce and the Song fiscal system as well as lively discussions of religious beliefs the study of natural phenomena and private life in the public sphere. For readers who want an in-depth look at mid-imperial Chinese history and culture Dieter Kuhn's Age of Confucian Rule promises to become the book of choice."�Paul Jakov Smith Haverford College Belknap Press, Cambridge: 2009 hardcover

SWOPE KENNETH M
A Dragon's Head And A Serpent's Tail: Ming China And The First Great East Asian War 1592-1598
University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2009. Softcover. Brand new book. A fresh perspective on the late Ming and early modern East Asia. The invasion of Korea by Japanese troops in May of 1592 was no ordinary military expedition: it was one of the decisive events in Asian history and the most tragic for the Korean peninsula until the mid-twentieth century. Japanese overlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi envisioned conquering Korea Ming China and eventually all of Asia; but Korea's appeal to China's Emperor Wanli for assistance triggered a six-year war involving hundreds of thousands of soldiers and encompassing the whole region. For Japan the war was "a dragon's head followed by a serpent's tail": an impressive beginning with no real ending. Kenneth M. Swope has undertaken the first full-length scholarly study in English of this important conflict. Drawing on Korean Japanese and especially Chinese sources he corrects the Japan-centered perspective of previous accounts and depicts Wanli not as the self-indulgent ruler of received interpretations but rather one actively engaged in military affairs�and concerned especially with rescuing China's client state of Korea. He puts the Ming in a more vigorous light detailing Chinese siege warfare the development and deployment of innovative military technologies and the naval battles that marked the climax of the war. He also explains the war's repercussions outside the military sphere�particularly the dynamics of intraregional diplomacy within the shadow of the Chinese tributary system. What Swope calls the First Great East Asian War marked both the emergence of Japan's desire to extend its sphere of influence to the Chinese mainland and a military revival of China's commitment to defending its interests in Northeast Asia. Swope's account offers new insight not only into the history of warfare in Asia but also into a conflict that reverberates in international relations to this day. Kenneth M. Swope is Associate Professor of History at Ball State University Muncie Indiana and editor of Warfare in China since 1600. University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2009 paperback

I Chose China: The Metamorphosis Of A Country And A Man
Hippocrene Books New York: 2000. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. Armed with the limited conversational Chinese he learned in the U.S. Army during World War II Sidney Shapiro a New York lawyer arrives in Shanghai in 1947 for "a look around." He ends up spending the rest of his life in China. A foreigner in an alien land he falls in love with Phoenix a Chinese beauty and active revolutionary. Entranced by Chinese culture and society he gradually becomes deeply and personally involved in highly dramatic developments�the defeat of the Chiang Kai-shek dictatorship and the establishment of the People's Republic Land Reform the Korean War the break with the Soviet Union the war in Vietnam communes and the Big Leap Forward the "Cultural Revolution" the Tiananmen square protest economic reforms the opening to the West and troubled U.S.-China relations. Through it all runs the theme of an unusual love�for a Phoenix and a Dragon. Phoenix Sidney Shapiro's marriage partner of nearly 50 years teaches him to appreciate the Chinese Dragon. His understanding of the Chinese Dragon intensifies his love for the charming tempestuous Phoenix. The small bobbing craft of Shapiro's personal intellectual and emotional development is swept along on the surging socio-political tides of the last half of the twentieth century. At the age of eighty-plus after more than fifty years in China Sidney Shapiro has been able to see the whole picture�and savor it to the hilt. Speaking from an inside vantage not available to many he tells a warmly fond yet coolly objective story of his adopted land. ISBN: 078180759X. Hippocrene Books, New York: 2000 hardcover

BRASOVAN NICHOLAS S
Neo-confucian Ecological Humanism: An Interpretive Engagement With Wang Fuzhi 1619-1692
State University of New York Press Albany: 2017. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Addresses Ming Dynasty philosopher Wang Fuzhi's neo-Confucianism from the perspective of contemporary ecological humanism. In this novel engagement with Ming Dynasty philosopher Wang Fuzhi 1619-1692 Nicholas S. Brasovan presents Wang's neo-Confucianism as an important theoretical resource for engaging with contemporary ecological humanism. Brasovan coins the term "person-in-the-world" to capture ecological humanism's fundamental premise that humans and nature are inextricably bound together and argues that Wang's cosmology of energy qi gives us a rich conceptual vocabulary for understanding the continuity that exists between persons and the natural world. The book makes a significant contribution to English-language scholarship on Wang Fuzhi and to Chinese intellectual history with new English translations of classical Chinese Mandarin and French texts in Chinese philosophy and culture. This innovative work of comparative philosophy not only presents a systematic and comprehensive interpretation of Wang's thought but also shows its relevance to contemporary discussions in the philosophy of ecology. "This is a fine study of Wang Fuzhi's complex and fascinating neo-Confucian cosmology.

MURRAY JEREMY A
China's Lonely Revolution: The Local Communist Movement Of Hainan Island 1926-1956
State University of New York Press Albany: 2017. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Presents a new view of the Chinese revolution through the lens of the local Communist movement in Hainan between 1926 and 1956. Jeremy A. Murray's study of local Communist revolutionaries in Hainan between 1926 and 1956 provides a window into the diversity and complexity of the Chinese revolution. Long at the margins of the Chinese state Hainan was once known by mainlanders only for its malarial climate and fierce indigenous people. In spite of efforts by the Chinese Nationalists and the Japanese to exterminate Hainan's Communists the movement survived because of an alliance with the indigenous Li. For years it persevered though in complete isolation from Communist headquarters on the mainland. Using Chinese-language sources archival materials and interviews Murray draws a vivid picture of this movement from the Hainanese perspective and broadens our understanding of how patriotism Party loyalty and Chinese identity have been experienced and interpreted in modern China. Jeremy A. Murray is Assistant Professor of History at California State University San Bernardino. State University of New York Press, Albany: 2017 hardcover

RAND CHRISTOPHER C
Military Thought In Early China
State University of New York Press Albany: 2017. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Provides a systematic and comprehensive survey of writings on military philosophy in early China. This study of the philosophy of war in early China examines the recurring debate from antiquity through the Western Han period 202 BCE-8 CE about how to achieve a proper balance between martial wu force and civil wen governance in the pursuit of a peaceful state. Rather than focusing solely on Sunzi's Art of War and other military treatises from the Warring States era ca. 475-221 BCE Christopher C. Rand analyzes the evolution of this debate by examining a broad corpus of early Han and pre-Han texts including works uncovered in archeological excavations during recent decades. What emerges is a framework for understanding early China's military philosophy as an ongoing negotiation between three major alternatives: militarism compartmentalism and syncretism. Military Thought in Early China offers a look into China's historical experience with a perennial issue that is not only of continuing relevance to modern-day China but also pertinent to other world states seeking to sustain strong and harmonious societies. Christopher C. Rand is an independent scholar who received his PhD in Chinese history from Harvard University. He is the cotranslator with Joseph S. M. Lau of Ts'ao Y�'s The Wilderness. "With its close engagement with and nuanced interpretation of a truly impressive range of sources this book illuminates a field that gets too little serious attention." � Charles Sanft author of Communication and Cooperation in Early Imperial China: Publicizing the Qin Dynasty State University of New York Press, Albany: 2017 hardcover

JENCO LEIGH EDITOR WITH A FOREWORD WANG GUNGWU
Chinese Thought As Global Theory: Diversifying Knowledge Production In The Social Sciences And Humanities
State University of New York Press Albany: 2016. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Using Chinese thought explores how non-Western thought can structure generally applicable social and political theory. With a particular focus on Chinese thought this volume explores how and under what conditions so-called "non-Western" traditions of thought can structure generally applicable social and political theory. Reversing the usual comparison between "local" Chinese application and "universal" theory the work demonstrates how Chinese experiences and ideas offer systematic insight into shared social and political dilemmas. Contributors discuss how medieval Chinese understandings of causal heterogeneity can relieve impasses within contemporary historiography how current economic and social conditions in China respond proactively to the future configuration of world markets and how hybrid modes of cross-cultural engagement offer new foundations for the enterprise of learning from cultural others. Each chapter works from Chinese perspectives to theorize the location of knowledge its conditions of production and the modes through which its content or adequacy is legitimated challenged and sustained. Rather than reproducing Eurocentric knowledge production in Chinese form the mobilization of Chinese thought as a generally applicable body of theory actually breaks down clear boundaries between Chinese and non-Chinese thought. Leigh Jenco is Associate Professor of Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science. She is the author of Making the Political: Founding and Action in the Political Theory of Zhang Shizhao and Changing Referents: Learning Across Space and Time in China and the West. With contibutions by Gloria Davies Takahiro Nakajima Timothy Cheek Guanjun Wu Chenyang Li Ignacio Villagran Miranda Brown and Michael W. Dowdle.

"Understanding the Analects of Confucius is an outstanding work of sinological scholarship." � Henry Rosemont Jr. author of A Reader's Companion to the Confucian Analects "Peimin Ni's translation of the Analects has many virtues that make it stand out as an exemplary version of this most important Chinese text. Ni has chosen to present the text as a living document embedded in two thousand years of commentarial conversation over its meaning with today's readers very much part of that ongoing conversation." � Stephen C. Angle author of Contemporary Confucian Political Philosophy State University of New York Press, Albany: 2017 hardcover
