Book Description

An annotated bibliography of 247 titles is presented which reflects Communist China's periodical publishing activity in the subject fields of science and technology, with the exception of life sciences. The titles are arranged in alphabetical order according to the Wade-Giles romanization system and are followed by the Chinese characters and the translated titles. Some entries also carry the Communist P'in-yin or the Latin titles when these are available on the original publications. The annotation gives the frequency, place of publication, and publishing body of the journal, and a sketch of its characteristics with a brief analysis of its contents. Notes are added to indicate title changes and other pertinent data. The holdings of the Air Information Division are given. A subject index to the periodical titles is provided at the end of this bibliography. (Author).
