- Summary
- "On-location filming illustrates the mammoth scale of the dam ... Computer graphics accompany discussions on the geophysical, technological, and economic issues of this, the largest construction project since the Great Wall. The dam itself, however, is only part of the story. The formidable resettlement effort underway is a culturally and emotionally costly one for those abandoning their cities, ancient villages, and farmlands in what may be the true price for China's continued modernization"--Container
