Acknowledgments
The third edition of this volume was undertaken with the strong support of Susan McEachern, editorial director of history, international studies, and geography at Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. Grace Baumgartner and Alden Perkins of Rowman & Littlefield expertly helped guide the manuscript through the production process. In addition to information cited in source notes, the assessments in this volume benefited from close and frequent interchange with numerous colleagues in Washington, D.C., and throughout the United States and Asia who have a strong interest in Chinese foreign relations and share their perspectives during conferences, more informal meetings, and conversations in Internet groups. Special thanks go to the students who participate actively in the several classes I teach each year dealing with China and its role in world affairs.
