"Chinese entrepreneurs have contributed greatly to the country's phenomenal growth over the last 30 years. This excellent book provides essential knowledge on how the structures that have allowed them to do so well in the past, the current situation, and the reforms that are needed to ensure this success continues." - Franklin Allen Professor and Executive Director, Brevan Howard Centre for Financial Analysis, Imperial College London, UK; Nippon Life Professor of Finance, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, USA "China's economic reforms bred a new class of businesspeople who took advantage of the new commercial opportunities that arose. The next challenge is how to maintain the spirit of the early pioneers. This fascinating book details how sustainable entrepreneurship can be achieved and gives examples and cases of successful privately-run businesses that have stood the test of time." - Huiyao Wang, Director General, Center for China and Globalization, China; Counselor of the State Council, China
