Trade Review
"Print and Politics is a first-rate study of a very influential Chinese newspaper. It provides us with a richly textured picture of the evolution of radical approaches to reform in the years leading up to the Revolution of 1911, as well as a fascinating overview of the attempts of one key group to develop a new political vocabulary rooted in indigenous and imported concepts that would empower the exercise of public opinion."—Jeffrey Wasserstrom, Indiana University
