About this book
The fear that China's competitive stress will trigger another Asian crisis is flawed. This book dispels the myths behind the political rhetoric of the China economic threat and identifies the real risk for Asia. Combining rigorous research, economic logic and real-world examples, conventional thinking is debunked and the findings are irresistible.

Reviews
'The author has made a new diagnosis of conventional views on China by treating them in an original and stimulating manner by showing a broad knowledge of published and unpublished materials on Asia, China in particular...The arguments are advanced through economic analysis, backed up by data and anecdotal evidence from the real world. The author has also analysed many of the arguments that point to China as a threat. Such a balanced assessment is the greatest value of the book.' - The Surveyors Times, Hong Kong
'Lo introduces sophisticated economic concepts in such a way that even the layman will finish up with a stronger understanding of what's really happening behind the alarmist headlines.' - FinanaceAsia
