A recent Gallup Poll shows that although just two percent of all Chinese nationwide have hot running water, virtually all households have televisions. Family income levels have risen sharply in both urban and rural China during the last two decades, and yet only one percent of adults say their family owns an automobile. First as a teacher and then as a Finnish foreign correspondent living in China, author Linda Jakobson describes the changes that have been taking place over the past ten years. A result of hundreds of interviews with Chinese of all ages and of all ranks, this personal, wide~reaching, and intelligent book speaks on several topics with some startling conclusions: ~the style and attitudes of the emerging middle class ~the high cost of and problems with the health care system how important family ties are in Chinese society today and how those loyal ties are responsible for the Chinese economic miracle ~the work unit; how it has changed and how one's life is dictatcd bv it ~ education, both during the Mao period and today ~ the Cultural Revolution ~ the fuel behind the Tiananmen Square tragedy ~ the status of females in China and how it relates to the controversial issue of birth control, ~ the growing middle class, the rise of individualism, and the positive and entrepreneurial outlook the Chinese have been able to maintain ~ Chinese beliefs and philosophies ~ racism reform ~China's changing view of America ~ the question of Taiwan ~where China is heading .
