"This book explains why and how the number of texts by Lu Xun and Mao Zedong in Chinas Yuwen textbooks has been drastically reduced. It is essential reading for anyone interested in changes in Chinese language and literacy education."

"This book is based on a timely and nuanced research inquiry in one of the contemporary Chinese core curriculums. It provides a delicate showcase of understanding the social and political changes in the past three decades in China."
