Do you want to understand a country and its future? Look to its past. If you are interested in this topic, you can check out our Good Read Corner. We have a new theme called “余英時的文史哲與社會政治天地”. These good reads are full of fascinating insights into Chinese cultural, intellectual, and political history. Their Author, 余英時, has been regarded by his peers as one of the greatest Chinese historians of his generation. It is our pleasure to have Mr So Chak Man from the Department of Chinese sharing his recommendations.

Why not immerse yourself in history and discover a world that you may never know? Do you know what life was like in Hong Kong in the 1800s?
