Postcards from Tomorrow Square
内容简介
Since December 2006, The Atlantic Monthly's James Fallows has been writing some of the most discerning accounts of the economic and political transformation occuring in China. The twelve essays collected here cover a wide range of topics: from visionary tycoons and TV-battling entrepreneurs to environmental pollution and how China subsidizes our economy. Fallows expertly and lucidly explains the economic, political, social and cultural forces at work turning China into a world superpower at breaknech speed. This eye-opening and cautionary account is essential reading for all concerned not only with China's but America's future role in the world.
"One hundred years from now, when the West is looking at why China is where it is, historians will read Fallows." --- Dan Harris, China Law Blog
