This anthology of essays from Hong Kong and the diaspora, ranging across the past hundred and seventy years, records the intellectual ferment that has always characterised the city since its founding in 1842, sometimes restless and questioning, sometimes meditative and lyrical, always civilised, and buoyed by an all-pervasive and indomitable spirit of freedom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Minford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9882371973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789882371972\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chinese University of Hong Kong Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.10w x 1.20d","brand":"John Minford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982704574719,"sku":"9789882371972","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a288ea73-4640-4fbf-bc57-0a1c5b86d32d.jpg?v=1683262601","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-best-china-john-minford-9789882371972","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
