Let China sleep, for when she wakes, she will shake the world." Napoleon's words seem eerily prescient today, as the shock waves from China's awakening reverberate around the globe. Award-winning journalist James Kynge takes measure of the tremors made as China's ravenous hunger for jobs, raw materials, energy, and food - and its export of goods, workers, and investments - drastically reshapes world trade and politics. Through dramatic stories of the people who are driving China's transformation - entrepreneurs and visionaries, factory workers and store clerks - Kynge describes the breakneck rise of China, the extraordinary problems the country now faces, and the consequences of both. | China Shakes The World by James Kynge, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
