"This book is jam-packed with interesting observations about the political, social and economic issues confronting China's ethnically diverse border regions. It will make a useful addition to reading lists for undergraduate courses on China's ethnic minorities."

"This book provides a concrete tool for those seeking to study China's policy in its multiethnic frontiers and, therefore, is a must for not only academics but policy planners as well."

"This book provides a well-written and informative overview of the relations between state and ethnic minorities in China. [It] is a timely and welcome edition which illuminates the complex conditions in China's western regions. In addition to academic readership, this book should also interest a larger audience with an interest in China's ethnic minorities and border regions."

"A relevant, timely, and significant addition to the scholarly literature on governance. Well-researched, nicely presented, and thought-provoking, Governing China's Multiethnic Frontiers is a stimulating read."

"Governing China's Multiethnic Frontiers constitutes an important milestone in the study of the Chinese government's administration of its minority regions over the past 50 years. [The book] is bound to become the reference in general ethnic groups' studies in the People's Republic of China."

"Rossabi's introductory section provides a wonderful setup to understand the historical realities of ethnic minorities post-1949. . . . This book will be beneficial to an introductory reader looking to understand the general discussions that litter the field of ethnicity and ethnic relations in People's Republic of China."
