    About this ebook

    Edited with authority by the influential and respected Stephen Chan, this unique collection of essays gathers together for the first time both African and Chinese perspectives on China's place in Africa. The book starts with an excellent introductory essay from Stephen Chan, written in his usual elegant prose and featuring some very fresh insights organised with great clarity. Featuring useful historical context, this brave book analyses the "moral" aspects of the policies and ensuing migration.

    The book completely undermines existing assumptions concerning Sino-African relations, such as that Africa is of critical importance for China; that China sees no risk in its largesse towards Africa; and that there is a single Chinese profile/agenda. The resulting collection touches the issue of racism but is equally about moments of pure idealism and 'romance' in Sino-African history.

    Jerry Liu

    Jerry loves to draw. Her earliest memories of creating pictures on paper go back to the neighbourhood art class her mum put her in as a six-year-old. Playing with colours and letting the images she could see so clearly in her head dance their way onto the page taught her that art is first and foremost about FUN! She lives in Brisbane with her husband, one rather moody cat and a delightfully dramatic six-year-old, who is her source of inspiration for characters like Bab the Rabbit. www.babtherabbit.com or https://www.jerry-liu.com
