This book is not only a good collection of recent scholarship on China’s rise in an era of globalization, but also a valuable source that intrigues the reader to reconsider the prevailing assumptions underlying the debate of China’s rise. I recommend this book to scholars and China observers who would like to study the themes of Greater China and globalization and unravel these unanswered questions. It is also a useful introductory volume for students who would like to become familiar with China’s recent practices in regional relations.
