Q&A: Peter Hessler on urbanization in China

Jane Qiu

Nature, 2010, vol. 464, issue 7286, 166-166

Abstract: In Country Driving, the final book in his China trilogy, Peter Hessler recounts his 11,000-kilometre drive across China to see at first hand the effects of rapid industrialization. The New Yorker journalist explains how mass migration to cities brings out people's resourcefulness, but also how the speed of social and environmental change leads them to seek meaning in their lives.
