(6/23/07) The July/August Issue of "The Atlantic" Magazine – the special China
Issue
The Atlantic Monthly is a high prestige low circulation magazine in the US. Its
July/August Issue is a special on China – has articles on travel, art, religion, and
future of Sino-America relationship. The lead article is entitled:
China Makes, The World Takes
A look inside the world's manufacturing center shows that America should welcome China's
rise—for now. [Web only: Slideshow: "Made in China."]
by James Fallows
The author is the magazine's national editor, a well respected journalist who currently
lives in Shanghai. At the magazine's web site
http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/current
you can actually listen and view a narrated slide show as described above. However, to
read the entire article requires a subscription to the magazine. Someone actually sent me a
copy of the above article which is very well written. But I am not sure about the legality
of publishing it openly in a blog. Instead I am forwarding the copy to the Editor-in-chief
of ScienceNet, Zhao Yan, who can decide how to distribute it to anyone interested in
reading the article without violating copyright issues.
The content of the rest of the special China issue are:
