Covering the time span from the Shang to the Qing Periods (1520 BC-1911 AD), Gang Deng examines important factors in the decline of the Chinese economy from medieval sophistication to modern underdevelopment. The Premodern Chinese Economy is a comprehensive analysis of China's economic history and provides essential background to the study of this country's modern struggle for growth and development. Deng's emphasis on comparative analysis offers new insights into the concept of underdevelopment and theories of transitional economics.
