'Friends of China can help her best by maintaining broad but not
uncritical support and striving for a deeper understanding of this
ancient culture and the political and economic structure of the nation.
Professor Gao's book is a major contribution to this process.' - Sir
Edward Heath What are the reasons behind China's new move to reform?
What has been experienced and what lessons can now be drawn? Is China
facing new problems in its reform road? What of its future? Professor
Gao, one of China's leading reformers, examines and authoritatively
assesses China's reform over the last fourteen years. Incorporating a
broad range of theoretical, applied and policy materials, this book
features many current topics and up-to-date tables, graphs and
statistics.
