Opis

This book traces the evolution of post-Cold War relations between China and the US, focusing on their often conflicting efforts to achieve economic growth, military prowess and technological sophistication. Adopting a dual approach with equal emphasis on Beijing and Washington, it sheds new light on the relationship between the countries.

Recenzje

"Many people see the rise of China and America's response as the 21st-century equivalent of Thucydides' account of the Pelopennisian War. But the outcome will depend on diplomacy. This book captures the complexity of U.S.-China diplomacy beautifully, and sheds important light on this crucial question." - Joseph S. Nye, Jr., Harvard University, author of Soft Power: The Means to Success in World Politics
