Mandarin: Barron's Traveler's Language Guide
by Shu-Hsiung Wu

Up-to-date in content, beautifully illustrated with color photos, packed with bilingual lists of vital words and phrases, and overflowing with helpful travel advice, this book is a perfect take-along for both business and vacation travelers to China. Page edges are color-tipped--a different color for each section--so that on-the-go travelers can refer to any one of 17 separate general topics and find the information they're looking for in a hurry. Color-coded topics include:

• Culture and customs
• Making travel arrangements in Chinese
• Words and phrases for telling time, days of the week, seasons, and colors
• Getting around in China via public transit, driving, or bicycling
• Food and dining
• Cultural sites, such as museums, theaters, and sports arenas
• Many others

A substantial red-coded section in this book is devoted to vocabulary. It gives travelers a bilingual dictionary in two sections--from Chinese to English and from English to Chinese. Small enough for easy packing with travel luggage, and featuring a clear, vinyl jacket that will stand up to the wear and tear of many journeys, this book is both practical and good-looking. Here are language and culture guides that both first-time tourists and seasoned travelers will appreciate.
