Vast and sweeping changes are made up of many smaller ones – some expected, others more difficult to digest. By dissecting some of the befuddling happenings of the Past few years, the author has put a personal mark on cracking the codes – cultural and otherwise – that run the emerging power that is China. This book is a collection of 99 columns Raymond Zhou wrote for China Daily in the past few years. It is one man's adventure into the murky world of mostly mundane changes – progress and frustration that make up the tableau of a country in breakneck growth.
