Rezensionen

'When I taught a composition class to third-year students of Chinese a couple of years ago ... I could not find any textbook in English on teaching writing to learners of Chinese in the West. Here, at last, is such a textbook ... The carefully constructed samples not only illustrate how the Chinese language is used in writing, but also reflect developments in China.' - Times Higher Education Supplement

'Developing Writing Skills in Chinese covers a wide range of styles from greeting cards to business correspondence, which is helpful for both teacher and learner.' - Song Lianyi, Times Higher Education Supplement
