Editor-in-chief Israel Epstein and deputy editor-in-chief Lin Debin meet with the American Readers Digest delegation.

The Appeal of China Today

Generally, I believe that China Today 's main appeal is its comprehensive range of subjects, including education, business, music, culture, art, and politics. This variety appeals to a wide-range of audiences, in particular to Westerners like myself who are interested in learning about different facets of Chinese society. I also find China Today 's ability to compare and contrast aspects of Western and Chinese society very effective. In my opinion, your publication gives Western readers a better understanding of China through juxtaposing the two cultures against one another, highlighting their differences and similarities. I can see that your writers are very intelligent and ambitious especially in their choice of story angles and in terms of the topics they choose.
