"It is astonishing how accurately the Munich sinologist Hans van Ess answers all the questions we have always asked ourselves about China taking into account critical points, for example Tibet, Taiwan or the human rights discourse…With this volume we have a kind of literary compass in front of us enabling us to plan a trip to China easier from home and during travel leading us all the way through China's glittering present.”

"Van Ess is a master at communicating the essentials in a few strokes." Harro von Senger, Neue Zürcher Zeitung
