SNOW, EDGAR : The long revolution

Random House, New York, 1972

ISBN 0394468597

[13], 269 pages, 8 plates, map endpapers, cloth, dj, very good. From the dj: The Long Revolution adds immeasurably to our knowledge of 'the truth' about China and its leaders, in reports of Snow's long and candid talks, both before and after the Cultural Revolution, with Mao, Chou and hosts of others who had known him longer and better than any other Westerner. But the book offers far more than these unprecedented interviews. It surveys the profound changes occurring continually in the vastness of China, and it shows these changes in action in the lives of plain people. It tells us how the 'barefoot doctors' train themselves to make medical revolution in the countryside; what the May Seventh schools - 'reform schools for reformers' are really like; what food and rent cost; how acupuncture is tested and used as cure and anesthetic; about sex, marriage, birth control, abortion., Very Good in Very Good dust jacket
