Dealing with China

An Insider Unmasks the New Economic Superpower

De: Henry M. Paulson Jr.

Narrado por: Kevin Stillwell

The New York Times bestselling author of Dealing with China takes the reader behind closed doors to witness the creation and evolution and future of China's state-controlled capitalism.

Hank Paulson has dealt with China unlike any other foreigner. As head of Goldman Sachs, Paulson had a pivotal role in opening up China to private enterprise. Then, as Treasury secretary, he created the Strategic Economic Dialogue with what is now the world's second-largest economy. He negotiated with China on needed economic reforms, while safeguarding the teetering U.S. financial system. Over his career, Paulson has worked with scores of top Chinese leaders, including Xi Jinping, China's most powerful man in decades.

In Dealing with China, Paulson draws on his unprecedented access to modern China's political and business elite, including its three most recent heads of state, to answer several key questions:

How did China become an economic superpower so quickly?
How does business really get done there?
What are the best ways for Western business and political leaders to work with, compete with, and benefit from China?
How can the U.S. negotiate with and influence China given its authoritarian rule, its massive environmental concerns, and its huge population's unrelenting demands for economic growth and security?

Written in the same anecdote-rich, page-turning style as Paulson's bestselling memoir, On the Brink, Dealing with China is certain to become the classic and definitive examination of how to engage China's leaders as they build their economic superpower.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Delivers a highly personal, you-are-there feeling for how top players in government and finance staved off a disaster."

-- BusinessWeek, on Paulson's ON THE BRINK

"Engaging, well-written narrative."

--Wall Street Journal, on Paulson's ON THE BRINK

"Henry Paulson was for better or worse the leader throughout the crisis. Throughout the book Paulson truly shines."
--Daily Markets, on Paulson's ON THE BRINK

A real insight into how far and how fast China improved in the 1990s-2012

It is easy in this time of backsliding to forget how recent the liberalism being dialed back is. Paulson provides a superbly balanced approach.

Long Interesting book - but does get long

Very interesting perspectives on China and where China is going according to a true expert.

You may not agree with Paulson or find China threatening, this is still a book worth getting to get a full understanding of how the USA has dealt with China and the Chinese personalities on the other side of the equation.

Paulson must have incredible energy, stamina, and brilliance to manage what he has accomplished. He did not just manage a relationship with China. He was also a hugely influential Investment Banker. He was the CEO of Goldman Sachs.

Read this with the Steve Schwartzman book, "What it Takes".

This book will wear you out in the end. I have the impression that it has two chapters too many. But ok, still a very good book.

Enlightened and Enlightening

I can hardly believe a Republican wrote such a civilized book about China. I hope both the CCP and the U S government read it and take it to heart.
China will grow. It makes no sense to wait for it to fail like the USSR. China will lead much of the developing world out of poverty.
China can be a great and supportive friend to the U.S. and could be a nightmarish competitor if the U S "manages" the relationship poorly.
Thank you Mr. Paulson

Seriously great book

If you have a teenager, you should require they read this book WITH you. It's a very deep view into the future.

Everyone should read this book

Well written and worth a listen. I lived in China for nearly five years, for school and then work. This book brought a lot of very interesting perspectives on some of what I experienced.
