Reviews
'Among the recent works on ethnicity in China, few are as encompassing as the Handbook on Ethnic Minorities in China. Apart from containing a wide range of relevant topics covered by leading scholars in their sub-fields and presenting a spectrum of perspectives, the Handbook is accessible to readers well beyond the corps of specialists. Its articles will not only inform future scholarship, but will also provide students, journalists policy-makers and others with an empirically-based and theoretically-informed introduction to key issues.' --Barry Sautman, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, 'Among the recent works on ethnicity in China, few are as encompassing as the Handbook on Ethnic Minorities in China.

The essays concentrate well-integrated information into a small space.'
