Summary
Details

China is one of the countries with the most rivers in the world. China has so many long rivers. Among them, there are more than 1,500 rivers with a drainage area of more than 1,000 square kilometers. Chinese rivers, according to the circulation pattern of river runoff, include outflow rivers that flow into the ocean, and inflow rivers that are not connected to the ocean. China's rivers are unevenly distributed, with both inflow and outflow areas. These rivers are not only an important part of China's geographical environment, but also rich in natural resources.

The book has 12 chapters in the following order:

Chapter 1: Introduction to Chinese Rivers (第一章：中国河流简介)
