The author would like to thank Xu Bing for writing the book title on the cover in his Square Word Calligraphy. “Square Word Calligraphy” is a system of writing developed between 1994–96 by artist Xu Bing (1955–). It presents English words in a Chinese format, challenging the preconceptions of readers of both languages. The Bauhinia blakeana flower on the front cover, first discovered in Hong Kong, symbolizes the territory. It is also featured in the Regional Flag of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China.
