Richard V. Lee, MD, is a graduate of Yale University (BS 1960) and of the Yale University School of Medicine (MD 1964). His clinical training in internal medicine and infectious/inflammatory disease was at Yale. Dr. Lees research and clinical interests have covered a broad range of issues, including the health status of geographically isolated human populations, international health, and the complexities of managing medical complications of pregnancy. His international work has involved providing care and medical educational programs for refugees under the auspices of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (Thailand, Cambodia) and consulting for the World Health Organizations Collaborating Center for Health in Housing based in Buffalo. He has a long-term interest in the relationships among environmental factors and human health. He has maintained an active research program studying the health of isolated populations in Northern Kenya (Rendille tribe), Brazil (Kayapo, Parakana, and Apalai tribes), and the Northwestern Himalaya (Ladakh). Dr. Lee developed the Medical Trek Program at the State University of New York at Buffalo 15 years ago. The medical treks have allowed a variety of students to participate in field work with isolated populations. He is emeritus secretary of the Board of Trustees of the Yale-China Association and maintains active academic interchange with medical schools in Hong Kong, Changsha (Hunan Province), and Beijing. He is presently Professor of Medicine at the State University of New York at Buffalo with secondary or adjunct appointments as Professor in Pediatrics, Obstetrics, Anthropology and Social and Preventive Medicine. He has written chapters for toxicology and occupational health textbooks as well as the standard texts for obstetric medicine. He has published more than 200 papers, essays, and book chapters and edited several books. Dr. Lee is a peer reviewer for numerous scientific and medical journals. He is corresponding editor for the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (UK) and an associate editor of the International Journal of Environmental Health Research. He is Medical Director of Ecology and Environment, Inc., and has been a member of its Medical Advisory Board for 20 years

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1887 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VI. SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL LIFE. SCHOOLS in China are usually kept by private gentlemen. The government provides for advanced scholars only. But since the one qualification for office is education, and the avenue to literary distinction and public honors lies through competitive examinations, the encouragement that the government extends to education and learning can be estimated only by that eager pursuit of knowledge which is common to all classes, and by the veneration in which scholars and scholarship are held. Therefore it is not strange that schools are to be found everywhere, in small hamlets as in large towns, although the government appropriates no funds for the establishment of common schools; and although no such thing is known as "compul sory education," there is a general desire, even among the poorest classes, to give their children "a little schooling." Schools of the lower grades never boast more than one teacher each. The combination system of a head-master and several assistants does not work well in China. The schoolmaster in China must be absolute. He is monarch of all he surveys; in his sphere there is none to dispute his rights. You can always point him out among a thousand by the scholar's long gown, by his stern look, by his bent form, by his shoulders rounded by assiduous study. He is usually near-sighted, so that an immense pair of spectacles also marks him as a trainer of the mind. He generally is a gentleman who depends on his teaching to make both ends meet;--his school is his own private enterprise--for no such thing exists in China as a "school-board" and if he be an elegant penman, he increases the weight of his purse by writing scrolls; if he be an artist, he paints pictures on fans. If he has not...

The incredible story of the search for one of Mao's lost children against the extraordinary backdrop of modern China. 'A son is very important in Chinese society,' he had said. 'To lose one is careless. The ancestors would be angry.' Intrigued by stories of a son given away by Mao and his then-wife during the Long March, and mystified by the 'official' explanation of the boy's fate (Whereabouts unknown - No further information available), Richard Loseby sets out alone across China in search of answers. Tracing Mao's own revolutionary journey, the author encounters the extraordinary realities of a new revolution, one that is transforming an ancient culture into a modern economic powerhouse. At the heart of the journey is the hunt for an elusive truth about a brutal and traumatic time in the nation's still raw history. Who was that abandoned boy? Might he still be alive? Would he even want to be found? The result is an amazing traveller's tale - revealing, poignant, funny, sad and unexpected at every turn. A Boy of China takes the reader on an unforgettable journey that is at once intimate and epic
