This book contains information for students, teachers, or researchers planning a long-term stay in China or Taiwan. Candid assessments of qualities of schools are based on size, climate, salary, and benefits. Included is factual information foreigners may need for adjustment, cross-cultural awareness, personal needs, living conditions, etc. There is a comparison of educational systems, Chinese cultures, living standards, and conditions in mainland China and Taiwan. "Taiwanese" is used to refer to Chinese in Taiwan throughout the text, although all Chinese share the same language, fine arts, cuisine, and fundamental worldviews even if they differ in political views. Included are directories of Taiwan and mainland schools, teacher and student exchange organizations, publications on China-related topics, and associations and foundations. Recommended for academic and public libraries.
