The Chinese Dream, Museo Aero Solar, and more
Charlie Brown
BOOK Witness an aftereffect of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing: a curiosity, at home and abroad, about the guarded host country that is home to 20 percent of the world’s population. A new book by Dutch publishers 010, The Chinese Dream: A Society Under Construction (by Neville Mars and Adrian Hornsby; €49.50; 010publishers.com) tackles China’s growth in 784 pages and 1,800 images and infographics. The book is as dense as its subject and nearly as overstimulating but welcome in its candor.
