Changing China

A quarterly non-political review of life and conditions in China.

Changing China is an interesting and useful quarterly. The articles which it contains have been writteh in the form of letters by men and women of various ranks of life who are living in the interior of China.. They are not professional writers with any axe to grind but are describing what they have actually seen and experienced . The reader gets a picture or rather a series of pictures of life in Modem China, and at the same time a resumé of the progress made in industrial development during the past quarter....
