Travels in an Upside-Down World
This is a book about discovering China from both historical and personal perspectives. It covers a five-year- period from 1984, when China's modernizations were just taking hold, to 1989 and the student-led Tiananmen protest that culminated in a vicious crackdown and a draconian aftermath. During this time the author taught at a major university of China's Ministry of Public Security in Beijing and worked as a journalist for China's top media outlets, also in Beijing. The book examines aspects of both China's educational system and its approach to covering the news. It contains accounts of travels to all parts of the country, sometimes on the author's own, sometimes with friends and colleagues, and sometimes with his two teenaged daughters joining him from Canada. Featured also is a story of the author and his daughter Katharine being chosen for movie parts shot on location in a remote region of the country, as well as trips with his daughters to other countries, one crossing Asia on the Trans-Siberian Railway and another climbing Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest mountain. In his book, the author says every day was an epiphany. Often the result was beyond expectation. The sum effect of his varied experiences in an upside-down world was to turn his own world upside-down, too.

Takin' the Long Road
Takin' the Long Road is so named because of the path for which this book come to be. From seven-and-a-half years lived in China, Jim / Jimmer Shine / Jordan later 芝麻 / Zhi'ma shares a glimpse of the views and insights found for such a long and ponderous time. From temples of the Tao and temples of Buddha to temples of great leaders and those of modern civic design, Jim wandered curiously through that nation while working as a teacher of English, and as an artist among peers. Hoping to employ the kindness and empathy found endorsed in these pages that tend to muse philosophically at times, he touches on historic and ancient topics, aiming both to educate and lend contextualization for some political considerations of the modern era shared within. Respecting the diversity of perspectives any reality may have and how imperfect any view may interpret another person or situation to be, he finds that patience and continued conversation are critical for peaceful lives. This book goes from being at once a travelogue, while also offering hopeful reflections for modern times. Takin' the Long Road is a tapestry of stories of journeys, those in space and those in mind.
