What a pity that they didn't hire someone to write their abstract in decent English. Even in Stanford there must surely be someone who could do it.

Can you read Chinese?

I presume that refers to the spread of particular languages within a given area, not in the total number spoken?

Such rotten English from a Brit is inexcusable. Let the tumbrils roll.

Wikipedia actually has some pretty good stuff up on the history and regional variation of the Chinese language - probably as much as you'd be interested in knowing without actually speaking or reading any Chinese.
