Recenzje

"This highly important work gives us insightful analysis founded on a tremendous depth of scholarship and interviews. It is the most comprehensive account of China's innovation system through a western lens." Margaret McCuaig-Johnston, University of Alberta "Innovation in China offers a masterful account of China's innovation system, its working, and its impacts (for better and worse). A must read for those who care about innovation, China, or both." Dan Breznitz, University of Toronto
