Forces Focussed

The last four chapters of the book, which deal with the Revolution and Reconstruction, bring to focus the forces that have made governmental China today. "Was the Nanking government a dictatorship?" the author asks:

Its record does not justify an as-io camoucomhe party and so that the government political erg: ization, while not of dear simplicity or clarity, accurately portrayed the distribution of power.

Enough has been said to indicate that this study of China's government has not only a scholarly but a lively quality that makes it deserve recommendation, The book is one of a series published under the title McGraw-Hill Studies in- Political Science, of which Fritz Morstein Marx's "Government in the Third Reich," published in 1937, and H. Arthur Steiner's "Government in Fascist Italy," published in 1938, are also a part.—".n.
