» Moonlady - some best books on China
There are so many books on China. But good ones are difficult to find. Out of several hundreds books, I recommend the following:1. China's Global Reach: Markets, Multinationals, and Globalization by George Zhibin Gu
My review: It is arguably best book on China and current global affairs. It is written by a high-profile Chinese commentator. Its style and presentation is easy to read. Full of powerful insights on China.
2. 1587: A Year of No Significance by Ray Huang
My review: It is one very best book on Chinese history, which offers a case study of Ming China. Reads like a novel.
3. China A Macro History by John Fairbank
It is a well-written textbook, but its style and depth are not as good as the above two books.

Thank you for the tips on books on China!
I am not sure whether this was the topic where you meant to post your discussion. If it wasn't, email me and I'll have your thread copied to where you intended it to be.
In any case, I hope to check out some of those books some time soon!
