[EAN: 9781490587974], Neubuch, [PU: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform, United States], Language: English. Brand new Book. This is a newly revised English edition of the same Chinese original. The names in the text are the Pin-Yin of Mandarin, which also appear in simplified Chinese formats as the identifiers to reinforce who's who and what's what throughout the book especially when such a new name comes up for the first time in the order of the chapters. Chinese History Made Easy by Hanson Chan has been praised for its concise and fresh narrations of the general history of China for common readers ever since its first publication in simplified Chinese edition by Xinhua Publishing Co., Beijing, China, in 2008. Then, based on the reader's demand, its second edition appeared in 2011, and its third edition in 2015. In the "Preface", the author said: "Chinese History is easy. It is easy to learn, easy to understand, and easy to remember. In this book, I'll show the readers a simple way of how easy it can be." He explained: "There is a gift I hand out hidden between the texts of this book. There are keys for every reader to unlock doors getting through the maze of long corridors that lead to houses of many kings and queens, numerous rebels and generals in the courses of old and new histories of China. Those are useful keys for outsiders because when you try frantically to snooping over the endless volumes of Chinese writings on the five thousand years of its history and cultural developments through the ages, you do need a good guide. This book is aiming to do that and more. It is easy to read and understand, and importantly, it also helps you to remember." Simply speaking, the book deals with the entire five thousand years of history of China into three sections. Consecutively, they are (1) The Ancient Period, (2) the Imperial Ages, and (3) the Modern Times. In which the Ancient Period deals with the section of its myths and origins, and its ancestors and rulers before the Qin Dynasty was formed in 221 BC. The Imperial Ages tells the section began with the First Emperor of China who was enthroned in 221 BC until the Last Emperor who abdicated in 1912 (contents of the book I: Ancient & Imperial). The Modern Times is the contents of Book II. What is more, he introduces three "conceptual imageries" for readers to relate to the historical progress and cultural development of the entire span in Chinese history. Each has its own feature for the readers to recall its characteristic. One for each section, they are great helps to reinforce one's memory. He said: "Throughout my presentation, I have selected and focused systematically on important events and major figures for discussion according to their similarities and differences. I assigned conceptual imageries to reinforce one's memory. In addition, I used simple arithmetic to recall historical dates. I chose one political system compared to others for signs of division when I am dealing the progress of development and continuity of Chinese culture as a whole. . There were periods of peace and there were periods of chaos alternatively. All in all, they constitute records of a long path of continuous struggles of a people and a nation, lessons of either successes or failures." In short, the interpretation in this book is fresh and unique. Together, it aims to achieve the five purposes below: (1) To help to form an outline that will never forget; (2) To examine Chinese history of five thousand years in three separate sections; (3) To reinforce the reader's memory, three basic concepts are adopted and introduced; (4) To provide an easy way to build a solid base for anyone to become an expert; (5) To use it as a tool, simply for easy reading and understanding as a common reader may wish., Books<
