Doreen D. Wu is an associate professor in the Department of Chinese and Bilingual Studies at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Her primary research interests are in the area of comparative discourse studies, glocalization and multilingual media communications in the Greater China region.

This book will be a valuable addition to the emerging literature which approaches 'Cultural China' from a discourse-analytical perspective, researching globalization and 'glocalization' as discursive hybridity. -- Norman Fairclough, Emeritus Professor, Lancaster University, UK
