Synopsis China, with its dynamic economy, is sometimes a partner and at other times a competitor of the United States. Its vast cheap labor pool and huge consumer market attract foreign investment, though sometimes on China's terms. Its disturbing tendency to undermine its partners, especially in the field of intellectual property, causes rifts with the West. Charting the great leaps forward that China has made since Mao, Ted Fishman, writing from a business perspective, presents a portrait of modern China, its booming economy, and its modernized cities. He shows how China is already having a palpable effect on the American economy (and on everyday life), and assesses the prospects for the future as China positions itself to be, perhaps, a world-class power.
