Talks on interesting Books written about China
'The Civilization of China'  by Herbert Allen Giles, Professor of Chinese
in the University of Cambridge & sometime Consul at Ningpo.
This book gives an outline on the Civilization of China from feudal ages, viewing
from various aspects such as law and government, religion and superstition,
literature and philosophy, recreation and customs. etc. Giles was able to depict
such things as he observed, particularly with an eye of a foreigner, pointing out
misconceptions that China or Chinese had been wronged.
This is a story of the extraordinary life of Joseph Needham (1900-1995). He was a
brilliant scientist who made his name at Cambridge early in his life but spent his
last 50 years writing Science and Civilization in China which eventually ran up to
18 volumes at the time of death.
