Description of China's Global Reach
China is on the rise! A fast developing China is altering the global map. Get the inside story—from a Chinese commentator-business strategist—of China's emergence as a global economic leader!

An internationally renowned economist, the late Professor Andre Gunder Frank (1929-2005), called China’s Global Reach: Markets, Multinationals, Globalization a "marvelously real-life brass-tacks examination of China's participation in the world economy today and probably tomorrow." Author Dr. George Zhibin Gu gathers personal experiences together with solid research to present an in-depth discussion of a changing China and a changing world. From foreign multinationals' effect to the emergence of domestic markets, this in-depth book charts the economic and political development in and out of China and what it means for the world's future.

Most authors on this subject have little direct experience, or if they do, they don’t have the intellectual and global knowledge to make true sense of it. China's Global Reach: Markets, Multinationals, Globalization gives you an insider's look at key issues from a veteran commentator and business professional on the ground in China. Our world stands at a critical point; this book comprehensively details global economic, business, and political trends with particular focus on how to shape a better future for all nations.

China's Global Reach: Markets, Multinationals, Globalization explores:
>The ever-increasing influence of foreign multinationals in China
>China as a global manufacturing center, top trading nation, and market
>The international experience in China
>The emergence of business education within China
>The successes—and failures—of international businesses in China
>Pricing and its impact on the world
>The ever-expanding power of Chinese companies
>How China can achieve meaningful restructuring
>Employment issues within China and around globe
>Global expansions and mega-companies
>Great convergence of global civilizations
>And more—including an afterword by Andre Gunder Frank!

China's Global Reach: Markets, Multinationals, Globalization is an insightful, open-minded, and significant overview of a changing world in relation to a fast-developing China. It is a book perfect for professionals, researchers, policy makers, educators, and students, as well as for anyone who questions how the world will move ahead to the next stages.
