The work integrates Chinese history with a broader global context, allowing readers to understand how the two histories interact and influence each other. Through well-researched timelines and historical narratives, this book highlights major events, cultural advancements, and the rise and fall of empires, offering a comparative study that reveals the interconnectedness of human progress across different cultures and epochs. It is a resource for students, historians, and anyone interested in understanding the long and rich history of world civilizations, particularly China's pivotal role within it. -- From the rear cover: "Steps of Civilization is a concise reference book, with entries on major events in Chinese and foreign civilizations dating from remote antiquity to the early 20th century. The entries are objectively presented, based on records from historical documents published in China and abroad, and the compilers have also consulted authoritative academic works and reference books. The some 1,500 entries discuss briefly the developments of historic events, including their backgrounds and results, and information on personages, such as their times, deeds and influence. The entries of Chinese civilization and those of other civilizations are listed side by side in a chronological order. Presenting Chinese civilization in a global perspective, we hope this may lead to a comparative understanding of Chinese and Western civilizations." -- Contents: Preface; Explanatory Notes; Paleolithic Period Around 2.5 million-12,000 BP; Neolithic Period 10000-2000 BC; Appendix: The Legendary Period of China Around 2550-2140 BC; The Xia Dynasty Around 2140-1711 BC; The Shang Dynasty Around 1711-1046 BC; The Zhou Dynasty 1046-256 BC; The Qin Dynasty 221-206 BC; The Han Dynasty 206 BC-220 AD; The Three Kingdoms Period 220-280 AD; The Jin Dynasty 265-420 AD; The Northern and Southern Dynasties 420-589 AD; The Sui Dynasty 581-618 AD; The Tang Dynasty 618-907 AD; The Five Dynasties and Ten States 907-960 AD; The Song Dynasty 960-1279 AD; The Yuan Dynasty 1271-1368 AD; The Ming Dynasty 1368-1644 AD; The Qing Dynasty 1644-1911 AD; Appendix I: Index; Appendix II: Bibliography.
