Transcriber's Notes

Most typos/misspellings were left as in the original text. In some
obvious cases they are noted here. There are cases of American and UK
English. There are cases of unusual hyphenation. There are more than one
spelling of Chinese proper nouns. There are cases, like Marxism, which
are not capitalized. There are cases of double words, like 'had had'.
These are correctly used.

Additionally, the author has spelled the following words inconsistently.
Those have not been changed, but are listed here:

Northwestern
Southwards
Programme
re-introduced
practise
Lotos
Ju-Chen
cooperate
life-time
man-power
favor
advise

celestial court.

is spelled 'millennium', with a double n.

spelled without a hyphen.

Page 80. ("Collected Statues of the Manchu Dynasty") This is likely a
typo for "Collected Statutes of the Manchu Dynasty".

state examinations.

'l' in other places thoughout this work.

printed.

Pages 335 and 336. The spelling of J. G. Andersoon/Andersson is not
consistent. Johan Gunnar Andersson appears to be associated with studies
of China.
