Acknowledgments
My greatest intellectual debt is to my advisors at Stanford University, Harold
Kahn and Lyman Van Slyke, who guided me through a dissertation on this
topic and whose careful readings and insightful criticisms challenged and
inspired me over the course of many revisions. They created a rare
atmosphere of intellectual collaboration at Stanford and set high standards
for teaching, scholarship and integrity.
I would also like to thank Carol Benedict, Prasenjit Duara, Joseph Esherick,
Christian Henriot, Wendy Larson and two anonymous readers for the press,
each of whom provided detailed, thoughtful and provocative readings of my
full manuscript, substantially enriching its quality. Susan Mann helped guide
my initial formulation of my topic and provided insightful suggestions at
various points along the way. During a postdoctoral year at the University of
California at Berkeley I benefited from the presence of Frederic Wakeman
and Yeh Wen-hsin, who took time to read ment on my work and
who challenged me with the breadth of their own work on Shanghai and
related topics. Cynthia Brokaw, Andrew Char, Paul Katz, William Rowe and
Ernst Schwintzer each read portions of the manuscript and provided
ments and suggestions. I am grateful for the generosity of
each of these readers
