‘The Story of China’ with Michael Wood

Author, historian, filmmaker and broadcaster Michael Wood talks to Paul Blezard about his book The Story of China: A portrait of a civilisation and its people, a major new one-volume history of China that is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand its burgeoning role in our world today. China is the oldest living civilisation on earth, but its history is still surprisingly little known in the wider world. Michael talks about how the West has viewed China and often got it wrong; China's own understanding of its history and mystic past despite Mao and the Cultural Revolution, up to present day and the cult of leadership redux through Xi Jinping. Hear Michael’s prediction of how current issues will play out and what the West should be doing.
