520    Through the long, hot summer of 2019, Hong Kong burned. 
       Anti-government protests, sparked by a government proposal
       to introduce a controversial extradition law, grew into a 
       pro-democracy movement that engulfed the city for months. 
       Protesters fought street battles with police, and the 
       unrest brought the People's Liberation Army to the very 
       doorstep of Hong Kong. Driven primarily by students and 
       youth protesters with their 'Be Water!' philosophy, 
       borrowed from hometown hero Bruce Lee, this leaderless, 
       technology-driven protest movement defied a global 
       superpower and changed Hong Kong, perhaps forever. But it 
       also changed China, and challenged China's global 
       standing. In City on Fire, Antony Dapiran provides the 
       first detailed account of the protests, reveals the 
       protesters' unique tactics, explains how the movement fits
       into the city's long history of dissent, and looks at what
       the protests will mean for the future of Hong Kong, China,
       and China's place in the world.
