Reviews

The instruction of intermediate-advanced Chinese has not been so successful due to a lack of high-quality textbooks. Eyes on China rectifies this shortcoming. I am deeply impressed by its inspiring subject matter, careful differentiation of synonyms, helpful vocabulary and grammar (particularly on collocation), useful sampling of sentence patterns, and effective exercises. This timely textbook will have a profound impact on the field of Chinese language education. -Lening Liu, Columbia University Eyes on China devises an innovative approach for students to transition from intermediate Chinese acquisition to the advanced level. In coming up with all new materials, Chou and his colleagues have successfully eliminated unusual language expressions, anachronistic vocabulary, and topics irrelevant in contemporary China. Everything in this book is relevant to issues in China today. -James M. Hargett, State University of New York, Albany
