Summary

• "Oliver Turner, University of Manchester, UK"--
• "Demonstrating how past American images of China are vital to understanding the nature and significance of those which circulate today, this volume seeks to highlight that American images of China are responsible for constructing certain truths and realities about that country and its people and introduces the understanding that these images have always been inextricable from the enactment and justification of US China policies in Washington"--
