Reviews

Provides the readers with a very detailed description and in-depth analysis of how China's economic statecraft, or the use of economic weaponry in diplomacy, evolved during the Cold War years.

— Pacific Affairs

A worthy addition to the plethora of China studies of our times.

— Xiaoyuan Liu, Iowa State University

A major contribution to our understanding of China’s economic statecraft in particular as well as China’s foreign relations in general.

— Yafeng Xia, Long Island University
