Format:Paperback
This book is for everyone. It is rguably one of the most significant books in the last two decades. Hugely insightful and relevant on key China and global political-economic issues. Details this general picture: how China has been walking away from a bureaucratic society and embracing an open, dynamic life under globalization and capitalism. And how this fast developing China is reshaping global politics and business.
It has a vast scope and intellectual depth. It gives very detailed analysis on various hot issues such as global job and manufacturing transfers, changing world politics, business, investment and trade.
Furthermore, it offers insightful studies on America, China, Europe, Japan, and India. One of the most insightful topics is on the Japan-China issue. It gives huge account on current affairs in light of history. Truly brilliant is the discussions of the historical interactions between the two nations in light of current affairs.
Also it is insightful on the Taiwan issue. In particular, it claims that a federal system is the best choice for resolving the Taiwan issue, which is new to the issue.
In addition, it contains insider's analysis analysis on Chinese multinationals, stock market, banking and insurance sectors as well as investment, trade and the yuan issues. Discussions are both open and in-depth, which offers huge new ideas on things behind current events.
Finally, its journalistic style and presentation is straightforward and reader friendly. Author George Zhibin Gu is a very outspoken Chinese journalist. Writing on the ground of China is a huge plus. But being so open about the communist ills could bring him unwanted problems as well.

Being an expat working inside China, life is rather different. One can see that China is changing month after month. But understanding this fast changing nation is not easy at all. Out of all the books on Chinese business and politics, this one stands out in big ways. It offers vast new insights on what is behind all the political and business affairs inside China and beyond.
The author is one of the most famous journalists inside China, whose very outspoken newspaper pieces are highly influencial. He identifies several key elements that push China forward: 1. individual private initiative; 2. ever-increasing openess against a bureaucratic domination (which trapped China for long); and 3. massive international involvement, among others.
His critical views on the Communist ills are extremely significant. It is the very first book I have read that offers extensive knowledge on the inner workings of China's self-appointed government, which continues to be abusive and corruptive. As such, the author asserts that dumping this unlimited officialdom is the key for China's progress. All the discussions are set in a historical, global framework, which is more insightful and penetrating.
Well, an execellent book for readers of whatever interests. Also, I am reading one of his other books, which is equally interesting.

Base on the number of book in relation to this matter so far I believe that no one has come close to capturing "new China's" spirit and meaning as Gu. After reading his second volume I found it to be hugely insightful on the current events of China and global affairs. It greatly explores the key factors that shape Chinese and global development in the next stages. It gives tremendous info and analysis on the Chinese government, politics, business and economy for any one's interest.
There's a huge amount of info on foreign businesses inside China. You will be able to see about twenty five American and global multinationals inside of China that are studied. In the meantime it gives us a very provocative analysis on China's new role in the world. Gu details this general picture of how China is walking away from a practical society and embracing an open, restless and dynamic society. It claims that an overextended, self-appointed bureaucracy remains the key problem for China. To overcome countless technical barriers, greater openness, entrepreneurship and global involvement is all needed. Again, it's very insightful on the issues between China, Taiwan, Japan, India and West. I will add that his analyses on Japan-China line up are very interesting as well as Taiwan. There' a tremendous amount of info and analysis on China's financial, banking, insurance and stock market.
Author George Zhibin Gu is a very outspoken and a well known Chinese journalist who has generally covered mergers and acquisitions, capital activities, business expansion, and restructuring. He's an insider who gives us scrupulous examination on current China and global affairs which is more than a reason why you should grab hold to this book.
