This Open Access book is a compilation of interviews published by China News Service, a Beijing-based news agency, in its "West-East Talk" column. It has been divided into five sections: "Mutual Learning Among Civilizations," "Hot Issues," "About China," "Sino-U.S. Relations," and "Cultural Collision." The interviews feature more than 50 eminent scholars, scientists, politicians, authors, and other individuals from various parts of the world, as well as China, who have a connection with China and have a deeper understanding of the country beyond the stereotypes. The book not only covers current global issues but also delves into Chinese culture, history, and China-U.S. relations, which are considered one of the most significant bilateral relationships in the world today. The primary objective of the book is to establish a platform for dialogue among different civilizations and to promote the appreciation of the "harmony within diversity" of various cultures, particularly between the East and the West. We hope that this book will contribute to fostering tolerance and rationality, dispelling misconceptions about China, and promoting a more harmonious global community.
