This book examines all the aspects of daily life across all strata of Chinese and Japanese society, from warlord to peasant farmer; from food to religious beliefs. Coverage includes farming, marriage, customs and rituals, and the development of Chinese society. Life in the Chinese "colonies" of the Taklimakan and Annam is also covered. This reference is a useful tool for students wanting to learn more about living in early China and Japan.
