Jeremy Atiyah Book order (chronological)

Čína je zemí kontrastů. Stopy velké a pestré minulosti doprovázejí svědectví o pohnutých dějinách moderní, komunistické Číny. Dynamický ekonomický rozvoj přítomnosti se odehrává v souřadnicích strnulého totalitárního režimu. Bohatství některých velkoměst konstrastuje s chudobou velké části čínského venkova. Bohatý Hongkong fascinuje stejně jako mystická Lhasa. Tento titul neobsahuje DVD.
