A simple but effective design and crisply worded prose are the highlights of this look at the social history of the capital city of China during its ancient, imperial, and modern periods. Competent but unexciting illustrations dominate the early part of the book, while color photographs are used to portray modern times. A time line is appended. Bib., ind.
