About the book:
Many of us regard electricity as a basic necessity, while few of us know or even wonder how this seemingly magical current arrives in our houses. Fewer still think about the people behind the scenes, those who work day in and day out to ensure our electric needs are met. The stories in this book are those of unsung heroes, whose personal sacrifices ensured the dawn of a strong and smart Chinese electric network. Their tireless thirst for innovation is shown through their dedication to the cause.
