relate to Asia.

Regular issues are roughly seventy-two pages in length and
consist of some four or five illustrated articles, plus
illustrated review essays, and reports on critical issues of the
day. On occasion, we also publish interviews, photo essays,
bibliographies, and translations of literary and other scholarly
works. Prospective contributors are encouraged to contact the
managing editors, Bill and Nancy Doub (doub@csf.colorado.edu).
