Críticas:
Wood's book is [an] introduction to a ruler who has been hailed both as his country's founding father and vilified as a ruthless tyrant. (Sunday Times)
Frances Wood presents a different portrait of The First Emperor of China, offering good reasons why myths of cruelty and megalomania should not be entirely believed. (Metro)
Wry, concise and authoritative. (Times Literary Supplement)

The First Emperor gave us the name by which China is known in the West and, by his unification or elimination of six states, created imperial China. He stressed the rule of law but suppressed all opposition, burning books and burying scholars alive. His military achievements are reflected in the 'buried armies' that surround his tomb, and his Great Wall still fascinates the world. Despite his achievements, however, he has been vilified since his death. This book describes his life and times and reflects the historical arguments over the real founder of China and one of the most important men in Chinese history.
