one of the smartes novelist i've seen was "Aaran P.JuWinn-Vang" He can speak many languages influently such as: Chinese, French, Spanish, Japan, Vietnam, and Korea I just can't to see his new project novel comes out this near future which is actually confirm to be post-production. Aaran P.JuWinn-Vang may certainly return very huge as worldwide after years of working on his future project and will remember as a very special person to his belove ones

dont be fooled china, the FDA makes too much money off the Americans already. Just add 1.3 billion to their market you will make the capitalistic views look more in what is already a huge market. they will feed off the world.

I work with a stupid Chinese in Sweden. He eats with his mouth open. Belch or fart all the time. No, I do not want to learn about the Chinese. Moreover, they racists.

Professor Shen Heyong's theory is great for your argument. Housing and chinese family. The presentation is well saturated.

taken 2 classes with her at Berkeley, she's self-centered (her works dominate the reading list, even in a basic Intro to Cultural Anthro course) and condescending in her view of Brasilians (not to mention the romantic eyes with which she views the Alto do Cruzeiro) not to say she's not a great medical anthropologists and activist, but she comes across like she thinks she's some kind of savior. Passing her course is easy: mention Brasil, organ trafficking, or iatrogenesis and she eats it up!

I had the pleasure of meeting her on several occasions at conferences. In my humble opinion, she is one of the most down-to-earth and brilliant scholars out there. She's not only an amazing anthropologist, but also a strong human rights activist.

Thats very important. I study Cultural Antrhopology, and we are always reading her articles... You can read something like Death without Weeping. Its a really good book about the mother's love, but in a cultural way...
