Description: Picador, Australia. 2011, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 9781742610528) Card Cover , 24 Cm. Heavy Book Over 500gms, The Opion War is both the story of modern China starting from this first conflict with the West and an analysis of the country's contemporary self image. It explores how China's national mythis mould its interactions with the outside world, how public memory is spun to serve the present and how delusion and prejudice on bht sides have bedevilled its relationship with the modern West. Excellent.
