“Professor Ho's contribution was a double one, first as a leading expert in the interpretation of Chinese astronomy, then as the man who rescued Needham's project, and his Research Institute … This book can be recommended to anyone interested in the cross-currents of modern intellectual life in all its international complexity and in the story of one person's remarkable success in navigating through them.”

Professor Sir Geoffrey Lloyd
Needham Research Institute, UK

“This autobiography is well worth reading for it contains a great deal of first-hand information concerning the overseas studies on Chinese science and technology over the past fifty years, and also because of Ho's close relationship with Joseph Needham and the Needham Research Institute, and in addition, it presents a full picture of his own remarkable character.”

The Chinese Journal for the History of Science and Technology

“This volume of reminiscences is therefore more than welcome … his unique blend of humanistic and scientific scholarship will surely provide inspiration within his field for years to come, and to know something of the scholar behind them is a real treat.”
