Sun Tzu from The Art of War
A community of fifty five million expatriates. Up to two trillion dollars in assets. A highly integrated interconnected network of influence and favour. A firm base on the Pacific Rim. Ambitions to influence the West. Imagine the potential power of such an organisation. You don't have to. This is the Overseas Chinese.
Sterling Seagrave's brilliant new book Lords of the Rim uncovers a complex web of operations which already dominates the Far East and which is already making inroads into the West. It is a superbly researched and spectacularly told account of an extraordinary phenomenon telling just who the Overseas Chinese are and how they became so powerful. Spanning thousands of years it encompasses stories of murder and betrayal bravery and corruption; of triads syndicates kingmakers merchants emperors generals spies and pirates.
In telling this masterful and entertaining history Seagrave provides the reader with a cautionary tale: that Chinese strategies so effective for centuries are just as succesful today.
