Beijing Editorial Review
In "The Shortest History of China," author Linda Jaivin offers a concise and engaging overview of China's complex history, from its ancient dynasties to its current status as a modern superpower. The book is praised for its ability to condense a vast amount of information into a small format, making it accessible to readers who may be intimidated by the massive amount of literature on China. Jaivin's writing is clear and well-researched, and the inclusion of illustrations and graphics makes the book visually appealing. However, some readers may find certain aspects of the history to be given short shrift, and there is criticism about the excessive amount of detail in certain areas that doesn't connect to China's present-day situation. Overall, "The Shortest History of China" is a valuable reference for those just starting to learn about China's history and provides an excellent grounding in this fascinating subject.
