Review

"Ian Buruma is a powerful storyteller. . . . "Bad Elements" is the best book yet written on Chinese dissidents." --"The New York Review of Books ""[Buruma is] one of the sharpest minds writing about Asia. . . . A brilliant examination . . . impressively comprehensive." "--The Wall Street Journal" "[Buruma's] sharply observed and well-drawn portraits of obstinate, courageous and sometimes flawed people inspire admiration and compassion....A vivid history of repression and resistance." "--The New York Times Book Review" "An intellectual travelogue that gradually circles Beijing before ending up there...Buruma has a good eye for the small ironies of exile." --"The Washington Post Book World"
