Samenvatting
"The refreshing and innovative recollections and introspections of a group of outstanding American China correspondents of the 1930s and 1940s have been skillfully selected and organized in this oral history. . . . An interesting and thoughtful contribution to the annals of the sometimes storm relations between media and governments." --Arthur W. Hummel, Jr., Foreign Service Journal "A splendidly useful and often intriguing oral history. It illuminates how U.S.-China relations soured and, drawing on sociological accounts of news work, dissects the special problems of foreign correspondents to analyze how intelligent and resourceful reporters came to misunderstand the Chinese revolution. . . . China Reporting demystifies the reporters' activities. It is an interesting book and a good read." --Gaye Tuchman, American Journal of Sociology "Readable, intelligent and thoughtful and should be read by anyone interested in China or in the processes that shape the news." --Shelley Fisher Fiskin, New York Times Book Review "China Reporting is a substantial piece of work. Its combination of personal stories and scholarly judgments makes it a book that professors will want to examine for a deeper understanding of Sino-America relations and that students will want to read for the sheer enjoyment of it." --William Wei, Pacific Historical Review "This volume is oral history at its best and a compelling read for anyone even vaguely interested in China or the workings of the fourth estate." --Nancy Langs, Far Eastern Economic Review
