I'm looking for a good book on Chinese civics. I know the very basics of how the government's structured, but I want to go more in-depth.

So far I've found ebooks for The Government of China (Yu Bin), Chinese Politics and Government (Sujian Guo), and Understanding Chinese Politics (Neil Collins). I'm also looking to find a copy of Modern Chinese Government (Qianyou Zhang) but I'm not optimistic.

Is anyone familiar with any of these? Any recommendations?

Socialism with Chinese Characteristics: A Guide for Foreigners is a good starter and references and recommends many books that go more in depth into specific subjects and aspects.

I found a Chinese PDF of Modern Chinese Government that you could machine translate.

There is one from 20 years ago called The Political System of China, by Yin Zhongqing, that seems detailed about roles and procedures, but the info will be dated of course
