Features: Here, people trust and are friendly with each other, regardless of whether they have white, yellow, or brown skin. When they meet on the road, by the sea, or in the forest, they often smile with kindness and greet each other. North America is vast in territory, complex in society, economically developed, and culturally diverse. What is presented in the book is just a tiny tip of the iceberg and a small of the vast ocean of literature. However, one thing can be, that it is neither a repetition of common talk nor something fabricated or whimsically written; rather, it is a genuine expression of emotions and an accurate portrayal of the situation. Many of the articles reflect the friendly exchanges between Chinese scholars and people in North America. They describe the pursuit of knowledge and the dream of a stronger nation by Chinese scholars in foreign lands, demonstrating the wisdom, correctness, and success of the Party's reform and opening-up policies. China needs to understand the world, and the world also needs to understand China. Reading these articles allows people to appreciate the philosophy that "a distant land can offer valuable lessons," and it makes them even more convinced of the golden truths that "development is the hard truth" and "backwardness invites bullying."
