Tales of Old Hong Kong: The new Tales of Old Hong Kong compiled by Derek Sandhaus is available at Earnshaw Books.
Diamond Hill by Feng Chi-shun: Feng's memoir Diamond Hill describes an era of gambling and gangsters, Suzie Wong and squatter villages, fires and food stalls, and the Kowloon Walled City and its white powder. "A time when people were poor, but life was rich," he says. The world that he grew up in no longer exists, but his book - the first ever on the Diamond Hill refugee settlement, in either Chinese or English - offers a candid picture of what life was like for most Hong Kong residents in the 1950s.
William A. Callahan's China: The Pessoptimist Nation: China: The Pessoptimist Nation shows how the heart of Chinese foreign policy is not a security dilemma, but an identity dilemma. Through a careful analysis of how Chinese people understand their new place in the world, the book charts how Chinese identity emerges through the interplay of positive and negative feelings in a dynamic that intertwines China's domestic and international politics.

Comments on Stabbings in Beijing
Two other foreigners were attacked around 2:00am Thursday, October 30th around the Sanlitun area. They are of both of German origin.
One of them suffered internal bleeding in his head and is currently in the ICU.
The other one has a broken femur and a cracked skull and is also in the hospital for observation.
We went to the cops to review video yesterday and these portions are mysteriously missing.
If anyone saw anything that night please come forward as its not entirely clear what transpired---only that two of my buddies are in a world of pain and some jerks are responsible.
