Stanford, California: Stanford University Press, 1986. hardcover. Book VG+: mild shelf wear to boards and spine, else clean, tight, unmarked/no DJ. 8vo 474pp. from Preface: "This book is of course not the only way in which the history of traditional Chinese civilization can be presented. But its approach is the most satisfactory way I have found, in a quarter century of teaching and writing, to do justice to the myriad complexities of Chinese history--by giving balanced attention to all the major elements that constituted Chinese civilization in any period, to their interrelationships, and to their changes over time." #01985.
