The People's Peking Man: Popular Science and Human Identity in Twentieth-Century China
Sigrid Schmalzer
Offers a social history of Chinese paleoanthropology and a cultural - and at times comparative - history of assumptions and debates about what it means to be human. Focusing on issues that push against the boundaries of science and politics, this book offers an innovative approach to modern Chinese history and the history of science.
