Description
In 1587 the year of the pig, nothing special happened in China. Yet in seemingly unspectacular events of this ordinary year, the author finds exemplified the roots of China's perennial inability to adapt to change. With fascinating accounts of the lives of seven prominent officials, he fashions a remarkably vivid portrayal of the court and the ruling class of late imperial China.
