《中国人口三千年》内容简介

　　历朝历代，人口问题始终是影响中国历史发展的关键。人口不仅关系到战争兵力，还与粮食生产、财政税收、赋役数量等密不可分：

　　从秦朝开始一直沿用的重农抑商政策看似迂腐，实则是为了保证国家人口增长；唐朝之所以能够迅速缔造盛世，一个重要原因就是吸纳了数百万外族人口；破亿的人口数量，让南宋可以在蒙金夹缝中生存152年之久；明朝多达20万的宗室人口拖垮财政，加速了明朝灭亡。游牧民族与中原战争不断，究其根本，是他们bi须通过战争获得战俘，补充人口……

　　人口的历史就是一部浓缩的中国史，人口是掌握真实历史的一把钥匙。它不仅影响了中国的过去，更将决定未来的走向。

　　翻开本书，复旦大学教授葛剑雄带你从人口角度看中国史。
