'Americans in China' tells the dramatic stories of individual women and men who encountered the People's Republic of China as adversaries and emissaries, mediators and advocates, interpreters and reporters, soldiers, scientists, and scholars. More often than not, their initial fascination was followed by disillusion and disenchantment, a syndrome reflecting a deep-set ambivalence about whether to accept Communist China on its own terms or to pursue a long-standing quest to remake the Middle Kingdom in America's own image. At a time of great debate over the future of US-China relations, the characters in this book speak to us about the challenges of finding common ground.
