It was far too early to conclude that Mao had won the struggle with Russia, which reaches beyond ideology into economic and national rivalry and beyond that into the whole question of Communism's future. But as the radiation glow faded in the Sinkiang wastelands, Mao Tse-tung could afford to gloat over his bomb-and over the sudden departure of his hated fraternal enemy Nikita Khrushchev, whom he had once scorned as the "laughingstock of the world...
...fills the air with dust and snarls traffic along its tree-lined boulevards and across the 1,700 bridges that span its ancient networks of canals (some of which are being filled in to provide 40 miles of expressways and parking space). By night, its theater and nightclub districts glow in gaudy neon.

And since some mucus is swallowed, especially during sleep, there should...
...their size, the power-pushing cylinders are first cousins of the fragile vacuum tubes that glow in TV and hi-fi sets. But for all their futuristic appearance, they are a long reach into the past. They deal in electricity that always flows in the same direction-the same direct current that Thomas Alva Edison used in 1882 when he built his first primitive power system in downtown New York...
