The Journal's November 1996 issue (55.4) carried an error in Carolyn Cartier's review of Faure and Siu's, Down to Earth: The Territorial Bond in South China, pp. 979–81.

On page 980 in the second paragraph, the second sentence was misedited to read: “In the introduction, David Faure and Helen Siu embed the set of essays by Fu Yiling, Maurice Freedman, G. William Skinner, and others, in the social terrain of the delta and in the central scholarship of regional issues in South China.”
