Re: [ha-Safran] THE JEWS OF CHINA [???]
Is this the book you're looking for? The Jews of Kaifeng, China: History, Culture, and Religion, by Xu Xin. I had the pleasure of traveling to Kaifeng with Mr. Xu a few years back to meet indigenous Chinese people who claim to be descendants of the Jews of China whose history goes back to about the 12th century. He holds the equivalent of the Chair of Judaica at Nanjing University, and he periodically plans symposia on Jewish cultural matters for Chinese professors across the country. A most interesting gentleman!

Re: [ha-Safran] THE JEWS OF CHINA
Dear Prof. Weinshank, Prof. Jonathan Goldstein has written two books on the Jews of China. Please check out this bibliography http://www2.kenyon.edu/Depts/Religion/Fac/Adler/Reln270/Judaism/bibliography.htm for a full citation of his titles and a list of other works on Jews in China. (The bibliography was compiled by a Kenyon College faculty member.) You might also look at the Sino-Judaic Institutehttp://www.sino-judaic.org/ site which contains much fascinating information on both Jews in China and also in Asia. Hope these sites are helpful!
