A century ago, outsiders saw China as a place where nothing ever changes. Today the country has become one of the most dynamic regions on earth. In Oracle Bones, Peter Hessler explores the human side of China''s transformation, viewing modern-day China and its growing links to the Western world through the lives of a handful of ordinary people.
