| book description |

This book follows the thread of transportation development along a continuous timeline of historical dynasties, with a primary focus on presenting the factual accounts of transportation development, key events, and their evolving characteristics. It paints a fundamental picture of the origins, formation, and development of transportation. Simultaneously, the author delves into the exploration of the mutual relationship between transportation and Chinese culture, elucidating how transportation is integrated with politics, economics, society, and international exchanges. This not only reflects the supporting role of transportation but also highlights its transformative effects. Additionally, the author has, based on ancient texts and historical sources, created road network maps from different eras and thoughtfully selected photographs of significant transportation landmarks to facilitate readers' intuitive comprehension. This book is a splendid creation with a well-structured narrative, abundant visual content, and easy-to-understand language. The publication of this book not only helps readers to comprehensively grasp the main facets of China's transportation development but also fosters the spirit of self-improvement among those in the transportation industry, thereby bolstering the efforts to build a powerful transportation nation.
