How China's leaders think: the inside story of China's reform and what this means for the future

Thirty years of reform and opening up have transformed China from national destitution to an economic superpower involved with every major foreign affairs issue. This astonishing transformation, which generated growth rates that averaged almost 10 percent per year for three decades, has naturally engendered concomitant challenges and contradictions. This book is the story of those 30 years of reform as a way of understanding Chinas current and future role on the world stage. Based on personal interviews with members of Chinas ruling party as well as just-declassified Party material, this unique book has the personalcommitment of Chinas senior leaders, the next generation of leaders as well as the current generation. It is an exclusive and detailed insiders account from Chinas most senior ministers on the current and future state of media, culture, press and publications, film, internet, religion, science and technology, healthcare (including sensitive transplants), rural problems in addition to the economic, financial, banking sectors. How Chinas Leaders Think is an exploration of the present and a forecast of the future. As the books title unambiguously declares, Chinas leaders are its focus, particularly Chinas current and future leaders, examining how they think as well as what they say and do.
