"Dr Shengfei Gan's book on China is a remarkable work, written by a Chinese geologist who has not only grown up in China but has lived abroad for many years. The book therefore offers a perspective on China through both Chinese and Western eyes.

The book is written in a plain and highly readable format which provides a remarkable insight into China from almost every aspect - covering its history, politics, religion, customs, lifestyle, etiquette, economic affairs and ways to approach business in and with China.

I believe it will become mandatory reading for anyone interested in China, whether as a student, academic, business executive, tourist, politician or simply someone trying learn more about China and understand the complexities of its culture, politics and long-term vision compared to the West.

I can heartily endorse this book as a most readable and interesting analysis of the greatest economic and cultural phenomenon of the twenty first century."
