Book Description
Excerpt from China and Her People, Vol. 1 of 2: Being the Observations, Reminiscences, and Conclusions of an American Diplomat Such a book should be interesting and val nable. This, I am confident the reader will find, is both. The style of the author is most delightful, and in the purely memoir part he leads the reader into an understanding and an appreciation of the court life at Peking, and one cannot help feeling with him deep regret that the community of diplomats there is no more. His statement of the inner life and Spirit and aspirations of the Chinese people will be found most sympathetic and accurate. It is a pleasing and favourable view that the author takes of the Chinese people, and we ought to be thankful that their case is stated so well.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
In the first of two volumes Jerome Alan Cohen and Hungdah Chiu have presented in a comprehensive form the views of the People's Republic of China on all the major questions of public international law. The material chosen includes official acts and statements from every level of the Chinese government, editorials and major articles from the People's Daily, dispatches of the New China News Agency and other government media, the writings of Chinese scholars, and the speeches of China's leaders. In an extensive introduction, Professors Cohen and Chiu discuss the experience of previous Chinese governments with international law, and the relationship of China's domestic public order and its foreign policy to its views of international law.
