'China: the race to market is an excellent book for anyone who wishes to understand the direction in which the Chinese polity and economy is developing. For providing a background for developing strategies for business development it is therefore a must. And in addition it is a very enjoyable read. The major attraction of the analysis is the clear exposition of the various forces bearing on policy making and action in China within the Communist state, and by implication therefore on the the economy and the business environment. One cannot make business strategy without reference to a coherent macro view of the relevant environment and for any business either seeking to operate in China, or likely to be impacted directly or indirectly by events there, there can be nothing better than this book to establish a coherent view of likely development.'- Martin Flash, Partner, Mega Associates Limited, London 'Jonathan Story is one of only a few writers who can relate so credibly the connection between business decision-making and public policy making. In China: Race to market, he documents political and economic developments in the emerging China of the 21st century. More importantly, especially for those at the helm of Western enterprises, Professor Story explains in clear terms the opportunities and the challenges facing those seeking to establish and grow businesses in China. It's a good read: compelling, thought provoking, and laced with sound and practical business advice. ' - David Gautschi, CCG Group, Seattle 'Here is a book on China that places corporations center stage. Story paints the broad canvas of China's transformation in all its dimensions, while providing sound advice to senior management.Here is corporate strategy on a grand scale. A must read. ' - Paer-Anders Pehrson , Vice President Leadership, Ericsson 'Jonathan Story has written an admirably clear, well informed and judiciously timed book that should deservedly attract a wide readership among those seeking a comprehensive yet penetrative knowledge of contemporary China, set in its international context'. - Professor Jack Hayward FBA , Chairman, China Programmes, The British Academy. 'A very informative analysis of the political and economic transformation taking place in China and how this impacts business decisions, but more generally is a good analysis of China for western audiences.' Eric A.Hyer, Brigham Young University, Utah 'A fine and very informative book.' - Jean-Pierre Cabestan, Director of the French Centre for Research on Contemporary China, Hong Kong:. 'Well-structured, balanced in perspective and profound in analysis.' Li Chunfang, from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
