"Historical Dictionary of Chinese Foreign Affairs contains a chronology, an introduction, a glossary, appendixes, an extensive bibliography, and more than 300 cross-referenced entries on major events, national institutions, foreign nations, and important people in Chinese foreign affairs and the many institutions of the post-World War II international order with which the PRC has engaged, especially since the 1970s. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Chinese foreign affairs."--Page 4 of cover.
