The Last Days of Old Beijing by Michael Meyer is awesome. I'm currently halfway through it. It's about Beijing's development in the last 2 decades. It's written from the perspective of an English teacher living in a hutong and is funny and informative.

Thanks! I've got a tub of Obenauf's LP, but I have to check it out to see how it performs on suede.

Got any experience with the Zanskar?

I'd add From the Dragon's Mouth by Ana Fuentes.

Over the course of 3 years, she interviewed 10 people from different classes (富二代, 民工, entrepreneurs, dissidents...) and you get to meet touching, annoying, all kind of 北京人 you don't even notice in your day-to-day life.

A very interesting read I cannot not recommend.

Forget data, bring mosquito bits.

The Chinese government is still going off of pre-1970s guidance to apply BTI every five years but all seven of the manufacturers bred sinking spores out of the strains so now they only last three to six weeks. They sell more, but that brought dengue fever back to North America. If I could only get the right people to understand this they could completely eradicate them.

Seriously. I have the peer reviewed papers to prove all this on request.
