4.0 out of 5 stars Impressively informative, March 13, 2001
By 
This encyclopedia is truly packed with tons of noteworthy information from a range of all topics including calligraphy, martial arts ,landscape paintings, history, daily customs, food, geography, etc.. It's a real pleasure to sweep through it when you're looking for something accurate or even to learn for your own. The major drawback about this encyclopedia is the obvious lack of pictures or reproductions that might liven up the whole.

Overall, it's a fairly excellent guide to understanding China, and is almost a must-buy for anyone involved in Chinese Civilization studies, but it is also a very pleasant book for leisure sinophiles!!
