Writing in response to the growing anti-Chinese sentiment and alarmed by the threat of war, Dr. David Daokui Li pulls from his wealth of firsthand experience to demystify contemporary Chinese society and advocate for understanding between China and the West. In this urgently needed and fascinating book, he explains the inner workings of a rising superpower to help the world understand how it works-and how to work with it.

Wonderful overview of China and its aspirations and view of the world

A deep dive into the Chinese government, how it works, governs and serves its people. It helped get rid of many biases and stereotypes.
Thank you

Factfulness: The stress-reducing habit of carrying only opinions for which you have strong supporting facts. When asked simple questions about global trends - what percentage of the world's population live in poverty; why the world's population is increasing; how many girls finish school - we systematically get the answers wrong. In Factfulness, professor of international health and global TED phenomenon Hans Rosling, together with his two longtime collaborators, Anna and Ola, offers a radical new explanation of why this happens.

Fifty years of service at the White House in various capacities, including bodyguard to Abraham Lincoln, William H. Crook's memoir brings an astonishing array of personal details of life in the executive mansion. His sensitive observations of Lincoln are especially moving.

Fascinating history for everyone

What did you love best about Through Five Administrations?
I found the narration on this audiobook to be just the right pace and I liked the narrator. The story is fascinating, as how many first-hand accounts are there from inside the White House during Lincoln and Grant. The others represented here are very interesting as well.
Crook’s time as Lincoln’s bodyguard was clearly something that defined his professional life. It was obvious he came to love the man and he had great affection for the other presidents (and their families) that he served.
This is a long-lost treasure of American history.
