Chinese stuff. Essentially Chinese

Meer over het boek

Chinese Stuff looks at everyday life for the average Chinese, especially examining the modern, ancient, and conventional tools and devices people use in their everyday life. With this book, the readers come to reflect and appreciate Chinas unique - and often amusing - way of life. It is through these stuffs that we come to understand how everyday Chinese people live and adapt to this rapidly changing world - or not. This album contains more than 100 examples that take the readers into the home of any common Chinese family, and even into their bedrooms and bathrooms. These items are so common in the daily life of Chinese people that they are usually giving little attention. But when people observe them from a different cultural perspective, the common Chinese Stuff suddenly becomes fascinating.
