Seller's Description:
Good in Good jacket. Size: 8vo-over 7; Alfred A. Knopf, 1991, First Edition. Hardcover Ex-Library Book and Dust Jacket in Good Condition. Introduction by Orville Schell. Editor and Principal Translator James H. Wilson. minimal library marks, no cards/pockets, small stamp to CR page and upper edge of text block. Internals are spotless, no creases, no marks, like new. In his first collection of writings to be published in English, Fang Lizhi (1936-2012), the world-renowned Chinese astrophysicist and human rights activist, reveals to us the intellectual insights that allowed him not only to survive in China, but, in many ways, to flourish in the face of powerful opposition. Fang's concerns encompass not only the problems of his own country but those of all humanity. His book provoked the Chinese government, and he was forced to seek sanctuary in the U. S. Embassy in Bejing in 1989. His liberal ideas inspired the pro-democracy student movement of 1986-87 and the Tiananmen Square protest in 1989. 336 pp. Appendix, Glossary, Index. 8vo. 1991, Alfred A. Knopf.
