"China's Walled Cities focuses on city walls - the essence and signature of the traditional Chinese city - to bring this cosmic order to light. An overview of the history and importance of Chinese walls leads into extended explorations of Chang'an and Xi'an, Beijing, Nanjing, and the recently preserved city of Pingyao. The author's discussion is complemented by illustrations drawn from his extensive collection of images, as well as historic photographs, maps, and drawings."--Jacket.

This comprehensive volume examines contemporary life and history in Beijing, covering such topics as culture, politics, economics, crime, security, the environment, and more. While it is not China's most populated city, Beijing serves an important role as the political and cultural capital of the country. This volume examines Beijing's long history, contemporary society, and current challenges the city faces as we move further into the 21st century. Geared toward high school readers, undergraduates, and general readers interested in learning about Beijing, this volume consists of 12 narrative chapters focused on geography, history, and culture. Coverage includes location, people, history, politics, economy, environment and sustainability, local crime and violence, security issues, natural hazards and emergency management, culture and lifestyle, popular culture, and the future. "Life in the City" sidebars feature interviews and memories transcribed by people who are from, lived in, or traveled through Beijing, while other sidebars offer cultural fun facts and travel tips. This volume is the perfect read for anyone looking to get a better idea of what life is like in Beijing and how its culture has arrived at this point.
