Containing 725 pages of information and a comprehensive 37-paged index, J. Dyer Ball's THINGS CHINESE remains the definitive reference book in English on "the Chinese in almost every aspect of their life and character". Topics, which are arranged in alphabetical order, range from 'Abacus' to 'Zoology'.
While some sections of the book present a vivid and accurate historical record of China and the Chinese in the early 20th century, much of this book is still relevant today.
