How the Chinese Economy Works Reviews

Selected as 'Best Book on Chinese Economy' by Questia librarians

'The world is watching the miraculous development of the Chinese economy with varied emotions: envy, hope, concern... The richness of the material and the clarity of the analysis [in this book] will perhaps make the envious countries even more so; they will certainly provide valuable information for those hoping to learn from the Chinese experience; and they will provide a firmer basis for assessing the concerns of those competing in output and input markets.' - from the Foreword by Lyn Squire, President of Global Development Network
