What is the title of the book written by the american ambassador to china in the 1930s where he describes the chinese people in multiple ways one of them being that they are inherently hypocritical?I am from eastern europe and from the fragments I remember the chinese and my particular nation have very many similarities. As such I intend to read that book and see what other similarities there are so please help me.

>>1499342Reading the summary on wikipedia this has described a part of what I and my people have experienced.Anything else about this subject? Thx for the book btw.A phenomenon which I have observed not even in china is that a woman can kill her own husband(with or without any motivation) with or without help(often marrying the help) and still be determined a loyal wife and good woman. This is not very present nowadays as police does investigate deaths somewhat.What is unique to us is that between 1/3 to 1/4 of prostitutes from the european union come from this country who in turn makes up 3-4% of the european union's population.Anything about this?

>>1499351>try "Life at the Bottom: The Worldview that Makes the Underclass" by Theodore DalrympleHow can a society be entirely composed of the underclass?I would understand a small portion of severely disadvantaged people but why the whole society? How could one function like that? How did one get so bad? What follows this? Societal collapse?>I only know the Townsend book because he tweeted about it. That's how I found it, by searching xcancel for "elonbachman China"Anything else interesting this guy said?I do not have much in the way of social media.
