As China Goes, So Goes the World by Karl Gerth
While Americans and Europeans have become increasingly worried about China's competition for manufacturing jobs and energy resources, they have overlooked an even bigger story: China's rapid development of an American-style consumer culture. This title reveals why we should all care about the everyday choices made by ordinary Chinese.
