China Wakes by Nicholas D Kristof

China Wakes by Nicholas D Kristof

The definitive book on China's uneasy transformation into an economic and political superpower, and an insightful and thought-provoking analysis of daily life in China from the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists and bestselling authors of Half a Sky.

Nick Kristof's and Sheryl WuDunn's work as correspondents in China was beyond compare, and now they have written a book every bit as astonishing. China Wakes is filled with anecdote, detail, and analysis of the highest order.... This book demands reading, and yet it is a pleasure as well as an education. --David Remnick, Editor of The New Yorker
