Managing International Business Ventures in China

"I am usually hesitant to pick up books about doing business in China. There are some good books out there, but the variation in quality is high. [This] is one of the good books ... I would not hesitate to recommend the book to students planning to work in China, managers looking for advice, or academics trying to get up to speed on China." Administrative Science Quarterly, vol 48, No 3, September 2003
