Summary:
A formidable power on the world stage, the China that most Americans picture is only a rough sketch based on American news coverage, policy, and ways of understanding. Enter Keyu Jin, a world-renowned economist born in China, educated in the US, and now a tenured professor at the London School of Economics. A person fluent in both Eastern and Western cultures, Jin is uniquely poised to explain how China became the most successful economic story of our time. China's economic realm is colorful and lively, filled with paradoxes and conundrums, and Jin believes that by understanding the Chinese model, the people, the culture, and the history in its true perspective, one can reconcile what may appear to be contradictions to the Western eye. Jin conceptualizes an illuminating account of an emerging world power, its past, and its potential future.
