Deng Xiaoping and the Making of Modern China

Deng Xiaoping and the Making of Modern China

by RichardEvans (Author)

Synopsis

This major study examines Deng Xiaoping's life in the sweeping context of the events of Chinese history: the ascent of Communism, the Long March, the Japanese invasion, the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution and Tiananmen Square. Deng emerges from this elegantly written book not only as a steadfast revolutionary spirit, but as, undoubtedly, one of the most influential leaders of the twentieth century.
