Opis

This book, first published in 1996, examines the problems associated with the management of change, particularly those brought about by the rapid pace of economic development in China in the ‘reform’ period since 1979. China’s managers were challenged as never before as the country integrated itself into the world economy, introduced new technology, and decentralized control over its industries. This book discusses their successes and failures in chapters by specialists in Chinese management practice.
