Publisher's Synopsis
For more than forty years, the United States has reached out to China, helping it develop a booming economy and take its place on the world stage, in the belief that there is little to fear - and everything to gain - from China's rise. But what if the Chinese have had a different plan all along? The book reveals China's secret strategy to supplant the United States as the world's dominant power, and to do so by 2049, the one hundredth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic.
