Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Encyclopaedia Sinica As regards other contributors of matter the bulk of the work was done by myself, as already stated, and it was only when there seemed a reasonable hope of publishing that I ventured to ask specialists for help. I then found that there was no lack of ready helpers for a. Work that promised to appear early: it might have been in vain to ask for help at the beginning, but at the end I find that. By delaying publication. Many more valuable contributions might be obtained. In only two or three cases has any remuneration been oll'ered: the help has been given with generosity and enthusiasm, because the contributors recognized the value of such a book to the public.

Excerpt from The Encyclopaedia Sinica So brave a title as I have given this small book seems to demand apology or explanation. Children often receive names for which there is no justification at the time: no baby is Frank or Augustus or deserves to be called Patience or Grace; but there is always a possibility that they may grow up to be worthy of such names. This book is a small one but I hope it will grow. Even the Encyclopaedia Britannica was not always as large as it is to-day. I believe that the Encyclopaedia Sinica, in spite of all its deficiencies, will prove so useful that another edition will be called for, and then another, and that each edition will be fuller than the last, till a work is produced that is all by sinologues and specialists and that is worthy of the proud name. But this smaller book had to come first. Besides, the name is a good one. No one knows better than the writer how incomplete the work is. With more time the number of articles could have been doubled and almost every article made twice as long. But most of the book I did alone, and much of it in the spare hours of a busy life; only towards the end, when I felt sure the book could be completed, did I seek for help. A bigger work would have required time and capital and a staff of writers. On its present scale it will be of use to the ordinary student and reader, while it will also provide a basis for a fuller work to follow. In my researches I found a writer who alluded to a certain dictionary as being 'still-born,' and he further referred to it as a 'mere skeleton.' I should be sorry for my book to be called a 'still-born skeleton,' but I am pleased to think it is the framework on which a more complete and worthier Encyclopaedia may be elaborated. My heartiest thanks are due to Dr. G. E. Morrison, who not only gave me complete freedom to use his famous library, - the best in the world for my purpose, - but also encouraged me by sympathy, advice and help in many ways. Sir Charles Eliot, both in Hongkong and Peking, was always ready to assist, especially in matters relating to the Buddhist religion, and even allowed me the free use of a work of his on Buddhism, not yet published. M. Paul Pelliot not only helped with kind advice and correction but contributed an important article, while Prof. Edouard Chavannes favoured me with some valuable notes. Professors H. A. Giles, E. H. Parker, Henri Cordier and Berthold Laufer, though they have not supplied any articles, have expressed the kindest interest in the book and have readily answered various queries. Dr. Paul S. Reinsch, the United States Minister to China, proved a keen appreciation of the work by having it provided with valuable articles. Lastly, I must express my gratitude to the Jesuit Fathers at Zi-ka-wei, who, with their usual charming courtesy, gave me all the assistance they could, placed their library at my disposal and wrote some important articles for the book.
