Oracle Bones A Journey Through Time in China

A century ago, outsiders saw China as a place where nothing ever changes. Today the country has become one of the most dynamic regions on earth. In Oracle Bones, Peter Hessler explores the human side of China's transformation, viewing modern-day China and its growing links to the Western world through the lives of a handful of ordinary people. In a narrative that gracefully moves between the ancient and the present, the East and the West, Hessler captures the soul of a country that is undergoing a momentous change before our eyes.Hessler, Peter is the author of 'Oracle Bones A Journey Through Time in China', published 2007 under ISBN 9780060826598 and ISBN 0060826592.
