The
future

Joseph

Cambridge
alumnus

made
important
contributions
to
cultural

between
China

Britain.With

monumental
masterpiece,Science
and
Civilization
in
China,he
built
a
bridge
between
the
two
great
civilizations
of
East
and
West.
To
honor
tradition
and
innovation
is
the
outstanding
character
of
Cambridge.I
hope
more

China
and
Britain

progress

in
hand,you
will
