Description

The Historical Dictionary of Science and Technology in Modern China offers comprehensive coverage of scientific and technological developments across China from the late nineteenth century to the present day. This scholarly reference examines the historical context, pioneering scientists, and key figures who shaped China's scientific progress through different eras. The work pays particular attention to the scientists persecuted or tortured during the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), documenting how their research was interrupted and their contributions often forgotten. Published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, this historical dictionary serves as an essential resource for understanding how China's scientific trajectory was influenced by political upheaval, individual brilliance, and institutional change. Students, researchers, and historians studying Chinese science, technology policy, and modern Asian history will find this reference invaluable for tracing the complex relationship between science, society, and politics in twentieth and twenty-first century China.
