East China Sea (p. 70) 
Oceanography in China, a report 
published by the National Academy 
of Sciences in April 1980, depicts the 
state of the Chinese oceanographic 
community from the end of the Cul- 
tural Revolution to the present. The 
most up-to-date, thorough review of 
Chinese oceanography, this work is 
available at a cost of $7.00 from the 
National Academy of Sciences Press, 
Washington, D.C. Highly praised, R. 
Terrill’s Mao (New York: Harper and 
Row, 1980), is an account of Chinese 
society in the 1960s and 1970s. Chi- 
nese American Interactions, by J.K. 
Fairbanks (New Brunswick: Rutgers 
University Press, 1975), is a historical 
summary of the relations between 
China and the United States. H.W. 
Shen’s “Some Notes on the Yellow 
River” (Eos, 1979, vol. 60, pp. 
543-47) provides some interesting ob- 
servations about human influence in 
the area. For abstracts of scientific 
articles on the East China Sea, consult 
Oceanic Abstracts. In 1979, this jour- 
nal summarized ten articles about the 
morphology, hydrology, and taxonomy 
of the East China Sea. For back- 
ground material in the field of marine 
geology, F.P. Shepher’s textbook, 
Submarine Geology (New York: Har- 
per and Row, 1974), is a good start- 
ing point. Other textbooks with basic 
information on continental shelves and 
plate tectonics are B.F. Mallory and 
D.N. Cargo’s Physical Geology (New 
York: McGraw-Hill Book Co., 1979); 
J.A. Jacobs, R.D. Russell, and J.T. 
Wilson’s Physics and Geology (New 
York: McGraw-Hill Book Co., 1974); 
and A.N. Strahler’s Principles of 
Physical Geology (New York: Harper 
land Row, 1977).
