Forging China's Military Might

"Forging China's Military Might belongs in any political science shelf interested in China's issues and international security and considers the nature of China's emergence as a world power."

"This detailed, well structured and researched overview [is] the most comprehensive and even-handed of anything currently available."

"Key for China analysts and those who focus specifically on China's defense industry will be to identify well in advance those early warning indicators that will allow us to determine the extent to which real change in the industry is occurring, and how to determine how much of an impact it is having on China's ability to close the defense technology gap. This book helps to advance that conversation by providing a number of ways to look at [China's] defense industry in comparative perspective, which will be of value to anyone seeking to answer these questions for some time to come."

"The contributors have done incredible research on such a comprehensive subject in a single volume. Their multi-lingual capabilities and multiple-perspective approach have distinguished this book from most previous works."

"Forging China's Military Might constitutes high-quality, cutting-edge research on China's defense industries. It should enjoy broad appeal—among academics, policy makers, security analysts, and business people in countries around the world."
