The book uncovers the role The Great Dictionary of Modern Chinese Dialects plays in analyzing the spectrum of linguistic differentiation in China. The author starts by sketching the development and current state of Chinese dialectology and dialectal research.

Looking at Chinese dialectology from a Western point of view, the author aims to understand and present the Chinese perspective.
