A new guidebook showcasing Hainan, China's southernmost province, to English-speaking

readers was launched on Sept. 9 at The Commercial Press head office in Beijing.

Produced by the award-winning international team of writers and editors behind The World of

Chinese, this book Hainan: Jade Cliffs to Ocean Paradise dives deep into the natural, cultural and

humanistic sides of an island lately associated with retirees and real estate.

"Most travel guides stop at telling you where and how to visit," said Chu Dandan, chief editor

of The World of Chinese, at the book's launch event. "Our book tells you why you should visit."

What moves readers are "more than just sea and coconuts," Chu said, "but the people and the

stories in between."

From Hainan's famous beach resorts to its backcountry interior, the book's writers went across

the province in search of little-told tales — trekking(跋涉) up its primeval(原始的) hills and

through its rainforests, sipping tea and coffee with locals, visiting the homes of fishermen and

ethnic minorities and discovering the passions of marine archaeologists, conservationists and

surfers.

These personal experiences and first-hand conversations are reflected in each of the book's

chapters on Hainan's ecology, history, culture, leisure, food, sports and economy. These topics are

then brought to life by original photographs, hand-drawn maps, interviews with native authors and

scholars and profiles on colorful individuals and communities.

"One of the things I was not expecting to find was a quaint little fishing village. Inevitably,

modem elements permeate the beauty of ancient elegance. The village has been quietly half-

occupied by a growing modem surfing community," Sam Davies, one of the writers, told the

audience about visiting the village of Houhai in Sanya.

"I was able to talk to some locals and others about how the village has changed, what it has

meant for people's lives, and how surfing is just starting to develop in China," Davies said.

"Our aim is to create something that will go far," Gu Qing, general secretary of The

Commercial Press, said at the book launch. "I believe Hainan's development will exceed even the

predictions in this book, and we hope this book and Hainan will go out into the world together."

Twenty years ago, I became involved in pet therapy (疗法) work with our Angel. As she

matured and went through professional training, we realized that she would be good at this new

job.

Angel is ten now and works every week. She visits two hospitals, providing day care for the

elderly, and our library's PAWS for Reading program. At the library, six to ten dogs lie on the

floor, and the kids pick a book to read to a dog. After they finish, they get a card with the dog's

picture and history. Angel also helps out at a special-needs camp. She is so popular that

everywhere we go people recognize her, especially the kids she has worked with.

We have seen some very special things through our pet therapy work. I brought Angel to our

local hospital to visit a woman who was completely unable to move the right side of her body

from a stroke (中风). One day, my husband, Jack, got Angel up into a chair next to the woman's

bed, asking her if she wanted to give Angel a treat. She nodded. Angel gently took the treat. Then

the woman raised her right hand and started petting Angel. Her friend couldn't believe her eyes.

After that, every time we saw the woman, she lifted her left hand. We'd tell her she had to use

her right hand, and she would. Next, you'll fall in love with this woman's story of rearing her own

Angel later in her family and why she calls it the best decision she ever made.

Time famine (饥荒), a term refers to the universal feeling of having too much to do but not

enough time to deal with those demands. Spending money on time-saving purchases may protect

you from effects time famine can have on your happiness, suggests a new study of which Ashley

Whillans served as a lead author. Whillans has experienced that recently, who was trying to move

to a new city for a new job, and felt there weren't enough hours in the days leading up to her

move.

"Then I have groceries delivered to my house. I have someone that I don't know move away my

boxes, which brings up a whole bunch of feelings. I honestly think, if it wasn't for doing this

research and the move, I might have had some concern about those purchases," Whillans says. "It
