. The Rough Guide to China - 4th Edition
by: David Leffman, Simon Lewis
October 27, 2005
The guide was accurate and worth carrying around, but the maps were weak; low in detail and with place and street names only in English. This made them limited in usefulness when asking directions as most Chinese people can only read their native language. Cab drivers would just shrug their shoulders when shown a particular point on a map. The guide is also not as culturally savvy as Time Out guides or as to the point as DK travel guides I have used in the past. It's obviously written by early 20 somethings perceiving a place from the outside. My native Chinese friends ridiculed some of the cultural hints as being childish and irrelevant.
Overall I was pleased by this guide, just be aware of its limitations.

. China (Rough Guide Travel Guides)
by: Jeremy Atiyah, David Leffman, Simon Lewis
April 24, 2003
I am currently in china using this travel guide. It is not up to the usual standard of rough guides - much is out of date and the places it recommends are rarely anything special. A lot of places it says are "a great place to watch the chinese" - which is a lot less than the only thing I would want from a region. I recently went to Shanghai and there used the time out guide and found that the rough guide had barely touched the surface of the city. I have found China a lot less interesting and fun that elsewhere in Asia, and this guide certainly hasn't helped to change that view. Would recommend against this one - hopefully the new edition is much much better....
