East Wind offers the first complete, archive-based account of the relationship between China and the British Left, from the rise of mod ern Chinese nationalism to the death of Mao Tse tung. Beginning with the "Hands Off China" movement of the mid-1920s, Tom Buchanan charts the mobilisation of British opinion in defence of China against Japanese aggression, 1931-1945, and the role of the British left in relations with the People's Republic of China after 1949. He shows how this relationship was placed under stress by the growing unpredictability of Communist China, above all by the Sino-Soviet dispute and the Cultural Revolution, which meant that by the 1960s China was actively supported only by a dwindling group of enthusiasts.
East Wind argues that the significance of the left's relationship with China has been unjustly overlooked. There were many occasions, such as the mid-1920s, the late 1930s and the early 1950s, when China demanded the full attention of the British left. It also argues that there is nothing new in the current fascination with China's emergence as an economic power. Throughout these decades the British left was aware of the immense, unrealised potential of the Chinese economy, and of how China's economic growth could transform the world.

史料足，但是分析比較弱。
评分史料足，但是分析比較弱。
评分雖然幾乎未用中文史料，但在英文史料發掘相當下功夫，不得不感嘆英國的檔案館圖書館保存資料真完善。作者偏重於英國左派對中國態度立場的變遷，對於思想和行動上的互動則都未多著墨。
