The essays collected in this volume reflect “Pitt in China” participants' original and fresh impressions of China. Many students are fascinated by the daily activities.
Others reveal their rare and interesting experiences. For example one female student describes her “encounter” with some Buddhist monks. She talks about her American understanding of Buddhism as the other-worldly religion. But the monks ask her about her goals in life a very this-worldly question. Like many American students her response is that she doesn't know what she wants to do in life. The American student looks a lot more Buddhist than the monks.
