China: Friend or Foe?

The extraordinary life of Dr Joseph Needham offers us some answers. Polymath, biochemist, historian, radical – Needham put the ‘S’ into UNESCO and wrote a monumental work on the science and civilisation of China.

Sent by Churchill to China in 1942, he spent the rest of his life promoting understanding between China and the West.
