Suitable for students with three or more years of modern Chinese language instruction, Anything Goes uses advanced materials to reinforce language skills and increase understanding of contemporary China in one semester.

The textbook covers topics that are essential to understanding contemporary Chinese society, including changing attitudes toward women and marriage, the one-child policy, economic development, China's ethnic minorities, and debates surrounding Taiwan and Hong Kong. The lessons intentionally investigate thought-provoking and sometimes controversial issues in order to spark lively classroom discussions.

Anything Goes was first published in 2005 and has been adopted by many institutions.In the process of using this book, we discovered a few errors and a few insufficientexplanations, which we have now taken the opportunity to correct and append in thisrevised edition.
The main focus of this revision has been rearranging and reformatting the layout ofeach page. Originally, traditional and simplified character texts were juxtaposed onadjacent pages, with vocabulary words following. The revised edition juxtaposes thesimplified character text and vocabulary words on adjacent pages and includes thetraditional character text at the end of each lesson. This change makes it much moreconvenient for students to prepare the lesson, while at the same time it reflects thegrowing trend of using simplified characters in international Chinese languageeducation.
Although we have actually increased the number of vocabulary words and examplesentences in the revised edition, due changes in formatting and font size, this editionactually has fewer pages than the last, making the book easier to flip through and carry.
Ms. Zheng Qu undertook the revision of this book, coordinating the supplementationof vocabulary words and example sentences. Ms. Cara Healey proofread the entireEnglish portion of the manuscript and also provided many valuable suggestions. Tothem we extend our sincere thanks. Of course, any errors in the final manuscript arethe authors' own.
