Berkshire online in China
I leave for Beijing a week from Friday and am already in that state of mind where I'm counting down every hour, and a little panicky about all the things I need to do while I'm still here. What a great pleasure to see that we now have an online presence in China, thanks to our new representatives in Beijing: Berkshire公司简介. (If you can't see the Chinese characters but just get little boxes, Chinese fonts have not been installed on your computer--we're encouraging everyone to get the fonts installed, and have some guidelines we'll be putting up at GuanxiOnline this week.)
This is just a version of our U.S. site at the moment, but over time we plan to have a variety of publications for Chinese readers only. The one I've been discussing this week is a version of the Cool Planet Guide , a new environmental book I'm writing. I have had two of my previous environmental titles books published in Chinese, the latest by a mainland company, but this time I want to develop a book with a Chinese co-author, and Jennifer Turner at the China Environment Forum in Washington has given me quite a few people to talk to about this in Beijing.
