Language can give a tremendous insight into the culture of a nation. Chinese characters, with their strong pictorial aspect, provide a great source of revealing information regarding ancient Chinese civilisation and its historical connection with contemporary Chinese writing. As readers turn the pages of this book, they are taken on a tour of a carefully selected collection of everyday Chinese characters, illustrated by beautiful ancient inscriptions and explanations that are both simple and detailed.
