Based on the experience of Americans who have recently studied, done research, and taught there, China Bound gives the invaluable "inside" information that only those who have been there can provide. Written primarily for students, scholars, and teachers, the book describes Chinese academic life and work and how Americans can fit into it. And, because it covers such a broad spectrum of topics--from customs regulations, taxation, and medical care to hotel life and how to get laundry done-- China Bound is also must reading for anyone who is already planning or just trying to decide whether to plan an extended visit to China. Academic Library Book Review states, "China Bound is one of those books that is absolutely essential." 606 $aForeign study$zChina 606 $aAmerican students$zChina 606 $aTeachers, Foreign$zChina 607 $aChina$xDescription and travel 615 0$aForeign study 615 0$aAmerican students 615 0$aTeachers, Foreign 676 $a370.19/6 700 $aTurner-Gottschang$b Karen$01813046 701 $aReed$b Linda A$01813047 712 02$aCommittee on Scholarly Communication with the People's Republic of China (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958367903321 996 $aChina bound$94365797 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05433nam 2200733Ia 450 001 9910815126103321 005 20251116152714.0 010 $a9786611320454 010 $a9781281320452 010 $a1281320455 010 $a9780470764800 010 $a0470764805 010 $a9780470995013 010 $a0470995017 010 $a9780470995006 010 $a0470995009 035 $a(CKB)1000000000402239 035 $a(EBL)351483 035 $a(OCoLC)476172455 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000254744 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11220875 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000254744 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10227226 035 $a(PQKB)10005723 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC351483 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL351483 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10240379 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL132045 035 $a(Perlego)2776699 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000402239 100 $a20051104d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 00$aSyncope cases /$fedited by Roberto Garcia-Civera ...
