Abstract

This book integrates current research in peasant agriculture with appropriate and relevant cases, and practical relevant examples. The beauty of the book lies in the individual chapters that delve into the density issues of Chinese peasant agriculture in readable and entertaining style. I see this book as a perfect outlet for readers who are curious about Chinese peasant agriculture and for students to explore this material through both assigned and optional reading.
