《中國現代小說史》是夏志清教授名著A History of Modern Chinese Fiction的中文譯本。在中國現代小說的研究上，本書可謂劃時代的經典之作。夏教授以其融貫中西的學識，論述了中國自五四運動至六十年代初小說的發展；他更超越政治立場及門戶之見，致力於「優美作品之發現和評審」（夏志清語），並深入探求文學的內在道德情操。也是憑著這一股精神，夏教授以過人的識見，對許多現代小說家重新評價；其中最為人所稱道的，便是他「發掘」了不少當時並未受論者注意的作家，如張愛玲和錢鍾書等。A History of Modern Chinese Fiction的學術地位，歷久不衰，至今仍是有關中國現代小說研究的權威著作。本書之英文版初刊於一九六一年，面世三十多年後，最新之第三版一九九九年由印第安那大學出版社出版；中文翻譯本自從於一九七九年出版後，隨即成為港台大專院校中文系師生案頭必備的參考書。今由中文大學出版社重新印行之版本，乃在一九七九年友聯版的基礎上，增收王德威教授〈重讀夏志清教授《中國現代小說史》〉一文及劉紹銘教授的新序而成，相信必能滿足各方文學愛好者、研究中國現代小說的專家學者以及師生的需要。
