It is analytical, thoughtful, well researched and sensitive … . The knowledge and understanding the author shows are vast, and the sources he has used are extensive and appropriate. Considering the complexity of the subject, the written style is easy to follow. In short, this book has all the hallmarks of good scholarship. … Boer’s is a splendid book that deserves success. It is a real contribution to the literature in an important field.” (Colin Mackerras, Fudan Journal of the Humanities and Social Sciences, June 21, 2021)</p><p></p><p>“Truthful to its title, the book is a guide to Chinese socialism, both comprehensive and incisive … most importantly, as a framework and guide for social practice. … For those who wonder whether China is still socialist or suspect that Chinese Communist Party abandoned Marxism, the book provides a lot of material on which to base their answers. In fact, anyone who wants to engage seriously and extensively with ‘socialism with Chinese characteristics’ should read the book.” (Tamara Prosic, socialistchina.org, June 20, 2021)</p><br /><p></p>
