Wealth and Power: China's Long March to the Twenty-first Century by Orville Schell, John Delury

5.0

A really fascinating look at modern Chinese history through important leaders and political figures, all fighting to gain wealth and power for China in their own way. The author did a really great job of weaving the themes throughout the book. This becomes especially obvious in later chapters when current strategies for attaining wealth and power are related to opinions of the figures earlier in the book. The chapters were also enjoyable to read, not too academic and not too pop fiction, just serious enough without being boring.
