Here They Call Me 'LaoWei': Working and Living in China with Open Eyes

This remarkable, fascinating book describes the life of ordinary, and many more extraordinary people with great detail, sympathy and humor. In adition to the very vivid description of all this encounters, the book contains great pictures taken by Dr. Wessling in and around Shenzhen. Its certainly not a superficial travel-narrative or ''How to do business in China'' manual, apparently was not intended to be, its much more and gives deeper insight into an extraordinary city and its extraordinary people. The author tries to do justice to the complexity of this gigantic country, while introducing to us all the facets which he got to know in the course of 6 years. Highly recommended reading, for those with (past, present or future) connections to Shenzhen and everybody who has more than superficial interest in China.
