Excerpt from The Emergency in China The promise to write this book was given before the Revolution broke out. It seemed comparatively easy when the task was first undertaken to give a brief summary of present conditions in China, and to point out some of the currents of thought Which sooner or later would produce startling results, but the difficulties increased a hundred fold after China had been shaken to its foundation by the sudden political tempest. To write of present conditions seemed somewhat like attempting to describe the transitory images produced in a kaleidoscope, inasmuch as everything was in flux, and nothing was permanent for any length of time. One felt that the writing of some of the chapters must be postponed as long as possible, in hope that a state of partial equilibrium might be reached be fore they were penned. As a matter of fact Chap ter II on the Results of the Recent Revolution was the last one taken in hand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
