8vo, br. ed. China is a big country and its cuisine is one of the world s greatest. In the last century all nations everywhere have been introduced to its tastes, flavours and cooking methods. But an understanding of Chinese food history is hard to come by: the country is large and the history is long. Hsiang Ju Lin has interrogated the written record, some of it dating back to the 5th century BC, and most recently from books current in the People s Republic today; she has translated it and set it into culinary context and thereby allows the modern reader to enter into some of the breadth and depth of literature available.In a sequence of chronological chapters Hsiang Ju Lin plunges into specific topics as diverse as the influence of the Silk Road, the administration of the Imperial palace, the role of tea and sugar, many of the grand banquets of which we have record, the differences witnessed in the southern provinces, vegetarianism, bean curd and soy sauce, birds eggs and birds nests, the role of salt, the impact of the Western missions, noodles, and the relationship of food and medicine.The reader is able to taste the richness of the heritage, to read for him or herself the words as diverse as the Essential Skills for Common Folk by Jia Sixie (6th cent. AD), Food and Drink by Shen Zinan (7th cent. ), Tao Gu; Zhu Yizun, and Yuan Mei (17th and 18th), the diary of a salt merchant on the east coast and Madame Wu s Home Cooking from the late Song dynasty.

8vo, br. ed. few pencil underlinings ow very good. 394pp. China's claim to guarantee the "Right to Subsistence" conceals a secret world of starvation, disease, and unnatural death. A world into which thousands of Chinese citizens disappear each year. The victims are not the political and religious dissidents, they are orphans and abandoned children in custodial institutions run by China's Ministry of Civil Affairs. Death By Default: A Policy Of Fatal Neglect In China's State Orphanages documents the pattern of cruelty, abuse, and malign neglect which has dominated child welfare work in China since the early 1950s, and which now constitutes one of the country's gravest human rights problems. Many institutions (including some in major cities) appear to be operating as little more than assembly lines for the elimination of unwanted orphans, with an annual turnover of admissions and deaths far exceeding the number of beds available. Death By Default is a long needed expose on a severe humanitarian crisis afflicting the Chinese populace. -- Midwest Book Review
