Product Description
This provocative book draws on secret primary documents to reveal the inside story of the rise to power — and plans for the future — of the seven to nine men who in October 2002 will take over China’s Politburo Standing Committee, the highest power center in the country. This "fourth generation" of leaders — after Mao Zedong and his colleagues, then Deng Xiaoping, and finally Jiang Zemin and Li Peng — is expected not only to push China toward a market economy but also to create much stronger ties with the United States. The book’s firsthand accounts reveal the radical reforms this new generation plans to bring to the notoriously entrenched Chinese political system.
