China's Only Hope: An Appeal (1900)

By Chih-Tung Chang

Book Overview

""China's Only Hope: An Appeal"" is a book written by Chih-Tung Chang in 1900. The book is a call to action for the Chinese people to modernize and reform their country in order to compete with the Western powers. Chang argues that China's lack of progress and modernization is due to its adherence to traditional values and customs, which have kept the country stagnant while other nations have advanced. He calls for the adoption of Western science, technology, and education as a means of catching up with the rest of the world. Chang also addresses the issue of foreign influence in China, arguing that the country must resist foreign domination and maintain its sovereignty. The book is considered an important work in the history of Chinese nationalism and modernization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
