Finalist for the 2015 Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism Longlisted for the Lionel Gelber Award for the Best Non-Fiction book in the world on Foreign Affairs An Economist Book of the Year, 2014 A New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice "One of the best analyses of the impact of Tiananmen throughout China in the years since 1989." --The New York Times Book Review On June 4, 1989, People's Liberation Army soldiers opened fire on unarmed civilians in Beijing, killing untold hundreds of people. A quarter-century later, this defining event remains buried in China's modern history, successfully expunged from collective memory. In The People's Republic of Amnesia, Louisa Lim charts how the events of June 4th changed China, and how China changed the events of June 4th by rewriting its own history. Lim reveals new details about those fateful days, including how one of the country's most senior politicians lost a family member to an army bullet, as well as the inside story of the young soldiers sent to clear Tiananmen Square. She also introduces us to individuals whose lives were transformed by the events of Tiananmen Square, such as a founder of the Tiananmen Mothers, whose son was shot by martial law troops; and one of the most important government officials in the country, who post-Tiananmen became one of its most prominent dissidents. And she examines how June 4th shaped China's national identity, fostering a generation of young nationalists, who know little and care less about 1989. For the first time, Lim uncovers the details of a brutal crackdown in a second Chinese city that until now has been a near-perfect case study in the state's ability to rewrite history, excising the most painful episodes. By tracking down eyewitnesses, discovering US diplomatic cables, and combing through official Chinese records, Lim offers the first account of a story that has remained untold for a quarter of a century. The People's Republic of Amnesia is an original, powerfully gripping, and ultimately unforgettable book about a national tragedy and an unhealed wound.Binding Type: Paperback

Very smooth and also affordable when buying the 3 bottle set.
Scent: Unscented, Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I just love this lotion. I am 78 years old and need extra moisture daily. I can tell you how this lotion has made such a difference in my mature skin. I use it every morning after a shower and nightly for over night protection. I love that it's unscented and doesn't take away from my cologne that I love, where other lotions overwhelmed my cologne. Anyway I love it so much that I bought the 3 bottle package to have it always on hand. I am very picky with my face lotions and serums and I use this lotion on my face after my serums. It makes my makeup go on so smoothly and seems to help not having to reapply during the day. I just can't say enough about it and this lotion will be my go to body lotion as well. I am constantly getting compliments on how soft and smooth my skin looks and feels and this is saying something when approaching 79 years young!!!

MY FAVORITE HAND LOTION FOR DECADES
Scent: Unscented, Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This particular version of Vaseline Intensive Care hand lotion is the best on the market. I have used it for decades, and though I have tried to other brands, keep coming back to this. It moisturizes very well, is not greasy and can be used anywhere on the body. Highly recommend!

Moisture Without the Grease
Scent: Unscented, Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This unscented Vaseline lotion truly provides long lasting moisture for dry skin
It’s rich but absorbs quickly & doesn't leaving greasy or sticky residue.
The only negative is the T-shaped pump head — I find it a bit awkward to use. Still, the formula itself is excellent.
