This book marks Hong Kong's transfer of sovereignty from Britain to China by celebrating Hong Kong as it is today. It is not concerned with politics but focuses on the environment and lifestyles of Hong Kong instead. One thousand people, from all walks of life, have been asked what Hong Kong means to them. Some were born and bred here, some came to work, some simply visited, some have now moved away. All have contributed their thoughts and memories. This book interprets these thoughts and memories in over 400 photographs which capture various aspects of Hong Kong life, and also in text, calligraphy and paintings. It is an historical, if impressionistic and subjective, record of Hong Kong today.
