Shoujiang, Mi and You Jia. Islam in China, translated by Min Chang. China: China Intercontinental Press, 2004.
Shoujiang and Jia discuss the history of Islam in China, but they do so from the perspective of the Chinese government. Therefore, there is greater discussion of the Hui and less discussion of the other nine officially recognized Muslim ethnic groups, very little discussion of the damage done to Islam in China by the Cultural Revolution, no discussion of the repression of Islam in northwestern China, and a perspective that northwestern China was always part of China. The English translation is not the best and it may not be available in the west.
Sections: Spread and Development of Islam in China; Nationalization of Islam in China; Islam in the Republic of China Period; Islam in the Initial Period of New China; Chinese Islam in New Times. Descriptors: 2000s, book, C, China, history, J, overview, post-Soviet, pre-Tsarist, S, Soviet, Tsarist
