“Isabelle Attané and Baochang Gu’s collection of essays … aims to address various defining patterns of China’s demographic landscape in the early twenty-first century, some of which pose severe challenges to China’s government. … The collection of papers serves as a high reference value regarding overall trends and characteristics of China’s population as well as consequence of social economy, and also as an important book with regard to the study of China’s population development and social transformation.” (Yan Wei, Canadian Studies in Population, Vol. 43 (3-4), 2016)
