全世界特别是英国普遍地关注新中国,使得这本简史,切合时宜,深受欢迎。本书作者叙述三十年来的生动故事:亚洲的面貌已经改变,而伟大的中国人民,经受了很多世纪的封建压迫和帝国主义的侵略,已经战胜了他们的国内外敌人。 The fact that the world, especially Britain, has generally followed New China made this brief history timely and welcome. The author of the book describes the three decades of vivid stories: the face of Asia has changed, and the great Chinese, having endured centuries of feudal oppression and imperialist aggression, have defeated their enemies both at home and abroad.
