China Ink - The Changing Face of Chinese Journalism

This lively book explores changes in contemporary China through the compelling personal accounts of young Chinese journalists. Through a series of engaging oral histories, Judy Polumbaum puts a human face on vital issues of freedom of expression and information that will chart Chinas future. These frank exchanges reveal diversity, passion, humor, and optimism that belie stereotypes of cogs in a rigidly controlled machine. As the first book to explore the experiences and ideas of everyday journalists who are helping to shape their rapidly evolving country, this unique and timely work will appeal to all those interested in Chinas dynamic society.
