Brave New Chinese Manifesto: Debuting revolutionary new phonetic Chinese scripts and input methods that will make Chinese much easier to learn

Chinese had no phonetic symbols. In 1914 Bopomofo was introduced to represent 38 sound elements and 5 tones of Chinese. It's great, yet non-Roman. Later China adopted Pinyin that uses alphabets. But it's ill-designed and not compatible with English. Mr Simon, a Taiwanese, considered Pinyin an obstacle for Chinese to be a global language. He thus spent 6 years inventing a revolutionary system. It includes "Alphanumese - a one-symbol-one-sound phonetic key system using alphanumerical keys, Abcedese - a new Romanization method fully compatible with English phonics, Dualese - best of both (ideographic and phonetic) worlds, Namesake Input Method that allows Chinese and English to be typed without mode change, 24-key super fast input method that does keyboard/keypad/cellphone input & hand signs, a special encoding that overcomes homograph problem and achieves error-free text-to-speech". This book writes about those breakthrough inventions and Simon's incredible saga of seeking and discovery.
