There is so much going on in Beverly Hills, on Rodeo Drive, but please, take a moment to read about the richness of the Chinese culture from different perspectives, will you?

The Journal of African Civilizations

I remember having vivid discussions regarding early Asia,
China specifically, with the late
Dr. Ivan Van Sertima, Professor at Rutgers University. We talked quite a bit about the African and Asian influence in science, mathematics, art, etc.
The book, "African Presence in Early Asia", by Dr. Ivan Van Sertima, co-edited by Runoko Rashidi is a must have in ones library.

Here in Southern California, I have to thank Dr. Adeline Yen Mah,
because I have the good fortune of learning how to speak Mandarin under her tutelage. During each course, we learn more and more about the richness of the Chinese Culture. Dr. Mah, has written a book entitled "China Land of Dragons and Emperors", which tells the story of the First Emperor of All China
259-210 BC - Qin Shi Huangdi [Ying Zheng]. The Qin Dynasty  ~ The Qin Dynasty was supposed to last 10,000 generations.

Visit Archeology,org to see and learn more about China's First Emperor!
The book is very interesting, and I'd advise you to check it out... Please, do yourself a favor and download the book for free. Compliments of Dr. Adeline Yen Mah, at: ChineseCharacterADay.com
