生杀之水 The Water of Life and Death

我十几岁的时候初读《水经注》， 惊叹古代中国有那么复杂的水系、那样丰富的水源， 于是想象古代的水草丰茂和人杰地灵， 慨叹当代的中国凋敝、万马齐喑， 决心复兴文明、再造中国， 让中国的秀美超乎欧洲。A Synopsis of the BookWhen I was a teenager I read Shui Jing Zhu for the first time. I was amazed that ancient China had such a complicated water system and such rich water sources. So I imagined the luxuriant aquatic plants and outstanding people in ancient China. I lamented the decline of contemporary China and the ten thousand horses determined to revive civilization and rebuild. China makes China more beautiful than Europe.
