This book is an academic monograph by the famous scholar Professor Ge Jianxiong on China's population development. As Mr. Ge Jianxiong said: "Just as citizens should understand the history of their own country, Chinese citizens should understand the history of China's population development." By combing through historical materials, this book discusses in detail China's population phenomena, the process of population change and development and its causes over the past two thousand years, and summarizes the rules. The book is divided into upper, middle and lower parts. The first part mainly discusses the origin, evolution and development of the population survey system in the past dynasties, and makes corresponding evaluations of historical population data; the middle part takes time as the context, specifically explains the population development from the Pre-Qin to the Qing Dynasty in chapters, and analyzes the characteristics and causes of population changes; the lower part explains the composition and reproduction of the population, the distribution and migration of the population, etc. In the review and reconstruction of history, this book can not only enable readers to have an overall understanding of the entire process of China's population development, thereby further understanding the present and thinking about the future; it can also provide favorable conditions for history, ethnology, archaeology, sociology, geography and other related disciplines.
Reader comments
This book tells the story of China's population development in detail, giving me a more comprehensive understanding of the history of population development. The book also mentioned that "according to the current population growth rate, China's population is likely to exceed 1.3 Billion by 2000." This sentence made me realize the seriousness of the population problem. I think this book is of great help to the study of Chinese history and social development, and it is worth reading.
