		<description><![CDATA[Mr. China tells the rollicking story of a young man who goes to China with the misguided notion that he will help bring the Chinese into the modern world, only to be schooled by the most resourceful and creative operators he would ever meet. Part memoir, part parable, Mr. China is one man&#8217;s coming-of-age story [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite the one-child policy, China's population continues to grow. Meanwhile, rapid urbanisation threatens a reduction in the country's cropland. Brown points out that a massive switch from the traditional Maoist policy of self-sufficiency in grain to a strategy involving large-scale food imports would tip the balance in world food markets. This short study raises more questions than it answers, but, as the title says, its function is to wake us up to the problem, and it certainly does just that.

		<description><![CDATA[China's development is imperilled by environmental degradation and the reckless waste of natural resources. Smil's second book on this subject examines the cost in terms of damage to the environment of the country's rapid industrialisation, concentrating mainly on the implications of the huge increase in energy required for the process and on the problem of food security. The dismal prospect he sketches is one of continuing environmental deterioration in the first decade of this century, regardless of any action taken to prevent that happening, but Smil does suggest long-term actions which could prevent an even greater catastrophe in later years.

		<description><![CDATA[Wall Street Journal: Stephen Roach is the chairman of Morgan Stanley in Asia. He has been publicly known as a China Bull. Having spent most of his career in Asia, Mr. Roach has a particular attachment to China and has a high expectation on the country understandably. In his Book 'The Next Asia' Mr. Roach pictures China as the world's next leader to challenge the US. At the same time, however, some readers disagree with Mr. Roach's view on China. The one on WSJ is an example. According to the author, China has not shown the responsibility toward holding the fort when the world is falling apart as a supposed leader. The question is, who else is a 'responsible' leader in the author's eye? America?

		<description><![CDATA[Since I regularly read journals dealing with international business and manufacturing, I am aware of the trends. However, until I read this book, I had no idea how dramatic the rise in the economic power of the People's Republic of China has been. From the figures in this book, it is clear that the phrase, "The cold war is over and the Chinese have won" is true. Current projections are that in less than two decades, the economy of the P. R. C. will surpass that of the United States. If the economic activity of the Chinese mercantile class living in other Asian nations is factored in, then the timeframe is even shorter.]]></description>

This book is very useful for anyone studying Chinese demographics, sociology or development. It has a plethora of maps and statistics that will help to build an image in the eye of the reader of China's developmental momentum, including its multitudinal problems. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Chinese communist party likes to claim Lu Xun as a precursor to later social critics who wrote along party lines. He definitely does not belong in that category. The cover of the English translation, published by the Foreign Languages Press Beijing,(not this edition) claims that his story, set in the China of 1911, reflects "the sharp class contradictions and the peasant masses' demand for revolution". Nothing could be farther from the truth. There are no peasants in Lu Xun's story who demand a revolution.]]></description>

For my approach here will not be the usual one of focusing on single works, but rather that of creating thematic pairs of books that are particularly effective when read together.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The novel opens with a nameless first-person narrator telling the reader of his old job that consisted of traveling and collecting folksongs and old stories. The villagers were generally happy to see him and were completely willing to relay stories of their past days. Although he enjoyed their stories, the narrator had yet to find a person who could completely recreate his past. However, after he met an old farmer named Fugui who was busy plowing his fields and kindly coaxing his old ox to work, his desire was satiated.]]></description>
