“Today Asia is of utmost importance to Americans. What happens there may make or mar us as a nation. We need to know what makes Asia tick. I had the good luck to travel to many of the towns and villages in Asia and to talk with people about what worried them. I met rickshaw boys and millionaires, peasant farmers and heads of state. They told me about the religious problems, the economic questions and the social revolutions that disturb them today. I talked of America and of Russia; and, like people everywhere, they told me some vey funny stories about their politicians. In The Voice of Asia I have tried to share with you what the people of Asia told me.” James A. Michner
