Description
The book explores contemporary Chinese society and its future direction based on direct and close scrutiny. Due to its distance and independent cultural development from the West, China has been the subject of an imagined world for many Westerners. However, the visions of Cathay could not justify the shape of Chinese civilisation. Only by contacting the nation and its people directly one can better understand its cultural essence and goals of development.

David Ferguson was born and brought up in Scotland. He has been working in China as a journalist since 2006. Living in China made him realise the previous Western stereotyped visions of China is, to some extent, distorted. And it is important to gain experience the first-hand materials for reporting faithfully. Mr Ferguson has been in direct contact with Chinese people and understands the people's dream of building a community with a shared future.
