Review # 1 was written on 2017-02-01 00:00:00 Michael Saam Dt. Brownell incorporates her years' experience of living, studying and competing in China into this book, which, in spite of not-so-rare hasty generalization and shallow interpretation, sheds light on China's interactions with the Olympic Movement and helps cast away misunderstandings stemming from lack of disclosure and communication. However, the anthropologist's embrace of cultural relativism when it comes to explaining conflicts and frictions keeps her from exploring the politics within the century-long history further and more soundly.
