Recenzje

'This vivid and insightful account of China's education system and its rich traditions enables readers to understand both its strengths and the tensions that have made equity of access and genuine transformation difficult.'Ruth Hayhoe, University of Toronto'This book provides an insightful, clear and comprehensive picture of Chinese education, from the reforms that have taken place to the challenges that lie ahead. It is a must-read if we are to understand China's "rise" and her trajectory into the future.'Kam Louie, University of Hong Kong
