The Most Dammed Country in the World by Dai Qing

In twenty short books, Penguin brings you the classics of the environmental movement. The courageous, unflinching speeches and writings collected in The Most Dammed Country in the World detail the devastating human and environmental cost of China's economic rise. Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As life on Earth has become irrevocably altered by humans, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend the planet, and affirm our place at the heart of its restoration. Their words have endured through the decades, becoming the classics of a movement. Together, these books show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world.
Dai Qing (b.1941) is an environmentalist and investigative journalist who has been campaigning against the Three Gorges Dam since the 1980s. She is forbidden to publish or speak publicly in China but remains in the country to continue documenting the truth about the regime.
