  • Author : James Bradley
  • Publisher : Little, Brown
  • Release : 2015-04-21
  • ISBN : 0316196665
  • Pages : 432 pages

Download or read book The China Mirage written by James Bradley and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Bradley is sharp and rueful, and a voice for a more seasoned, constructive vision of our international relations with East Asia." --Christian Science Monitor James Bradley introduces us to the prominent Americans--including FDR's grandfather, Warren Delano--who in the 1800s made their fortunes in the China opium trade. Meanwhile, American missionaries sought a myth: noble Chinese peasants eager to Westernize. The media propagated this mirage, and FDR believed that supporting Chiang Kai-shek would make China America's best friend in Asia. But Chiang was on his way out and when Mao Zedong instead came to power, Americans were shocked, wondering how we had "lost China." From the 1850s to the origins of the Vietnam War, Bradley reveals how American misconceptions about China have distorted our policies and led to the avoidable deaths of millions. The China Mirage dynamically explores the troubled history that still defines U.S.-Chinese relations today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Village Life in China - A Study in Sociology” is one of the author's fascinating written accounts of his experiences living and travelling China during the late 19th century, this particular volume focusing on the subject of rural life in the country. He wrote this book while living among the local population in small agricultural villages, noting down his observations and compiling them into this insightful glimpse of 19th-century rural China. Arthur Henderson Smith (1845 – 1932) was a missionary famous for spending 54 years doing missionary work in China. He wrote many books about his time there, presenting China to many foreign readers for the first time. Other notable works by this author include: “Chinese Characteristics”, and “The Uplift of China”. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Book Envelope Series  Quarterly   Vol  10

Download or read book Envelope Series Quarterly Vol 10 written by Charles E. Ewing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-09 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Envelope Series (Quarterly), Vol. 10: What Congregationalists Are Doing for the Uplift of China; October, 1907 This number of the Envelope Series will serve as a sort of guide book of Congregational mis sions in China. Anyone desiring to know what we are doing. In that great empire will find an accurate and condensed account in these papers. The work has grown so vast and, at the same time, complex under modern missionary condi tions, that such a setting forth is necessary for all among us who watch the growth of the King dom. An added reason is the reconstruction of the work in the North China Mission since the Boxer uprising in 1900. With the exception of Pang Chuang the property at every station was destroyed. The splendid new buildings which have arisen on the ashes of the old attest how rapid and glorious has been the recovery. Conditions, too, in China are so altogether new, that the time is ripe for a fresh setting forth of what the American Board is doing. The authors of the five articles are in the very forefront of the great movements now going on for the uplift of China and we wish to convey to them in this way the thanks of all who read, for the pains they have taken in the midst of their many labors, to enlighten us at home, as to the share Congregationalists are taking in this greatest missionary undertaking of modern times, if not of all times.

Book The Hundred Year Marathon

Download or read book The Hundred Year Marathon written by Michael Pillsbury and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2015-02-03 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the U.S. government's leading China experts reveals the hidden strategy fueling that country's rise – and how Americans have been seduced into helping China overtake us as the world's leading superpower. For more than forty years, the United States has played an indispensable role helping the Chinese government build a booming economy, develop its scientific and military capabilities, and take its place on the world stage, in the belief that China's rise will bring us cooperation, diplomacy, and free trade. But what if the "China Dream" is to replace us, just as America replaced the British Empire, without firing a shot? Based on interviews with Chinese defectors and newly declassified, previously undisclosed national security documents, The Hundred-Year Marathon reveals China's secret strategy to supplant the United States as the world's dominant power, and to do so by 2049, the one-hundredth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic. Michael Pillsbury, a fluent Mandarin speaker who has served in senior national security positions in the U.S. government since the days of Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, draws on his decades of contact with the "hawks" in China's military and intelligence agencies and translates their documents, speeches, and books to show how the teachings of traditional Chinese statecraft underpin their actions. He offers an inside look at how the Chinese really view America and its leaders – as barbarians who will be the architects of their own demise. Pillsbury also explains how the U.S. government has helped – sometimes unwittingly and sometimes deliberately – to make this "China Dream" come true, and he calls for the United States to implement a new, more competitive strategy toward China as it really is, and not as we might wish it to be. The Hundred-Year Marathon is a wake-up call as we face the greatest national security challenge of the twenty-first century.
