About the book

Between 1988 and 2013, the Chinese city of Zouping transformed from an impoverished town to a bustling city of over 300,000, complete with factories, high rises, and all the infrastructure of a wealthy East Asian city. This book focuses on the rapid changes in Zouping, its environs and in the lives of the once-rural people who live there.
