In this issue

How fast are things changing in Texas? In this issue's cover story, Tim Murphy reports on the future prospects of a Democratic senator in, "Houston, We Have Progress." You can also read about the growing guest worker program that may be trapping Indian students in virtual servitude, the Chinese project to plant trees to stop the desert from devouring the countryside, and an interview with Ken Burns who thought he understood the Vietnam War—until he started working on a film about it. Great issue. Important stories. Subscribe now.
