Ebook: Encyclopedia of Chinese Film

This academic reference book includes six informative essays, an extensive bibliography, web site addresses, and indexes of titles, names and studios in addition to the hundreds of main entries. At less than 500 pages, this single volume title is hardly comprehensive, yet does provides valuable information on history, various films themselves, general topics, and people within the film industry. Due to the high price, I can only recommend this title to professionals and serious students of Chinese film. I do research for web-based and film distribution projects and I've found the book to be well worth the purchase.
