Gao Zhisheng´s book A China More Just
:: THE NEW BOOK A China More Just by Gao Zhisheng is the story of one man who has taken on the world´s largest authoritarian regime. . . And, in the eyes of many, won, tells us the Introduction of the book.
BORN AND RAISED in a cave with only the stars to tell time, Gao rose from poverty to become China´s most important lawyer. He has courageously sought justice for vulnerable groups such as the poor, the disabled, and the persecuted. Yet Gao´s fortitude has drawn the ire of Communist authorities. Today, physical threat and police surveillance are a constant reality for both Gao and his family. Undeterred, he has responded in the non-violent tradition of Gandhi by launching nationwide hunger strikes to intensify the call for justice and human rights in China. His undaunted resolve and generous spirit have won the hearts of millions. Whispers can be heard in China´s streets, "Will Gao Zhisheng become the next president?"
Part memoir, part social commentary, part call to action, A China More Just is a penetrating account of contemporary China through the life of one attorney. Its selection of writings takes readers from a village in rural China to urban courtrooms, mountainside torture chambers, and the halls of a reluctant government. A China More Just is at once witty and raw, touching and wrenching, sober and playful.
