From the Back Cover

'James Miles has written a fascinating, sobering book that contrasts with much of the recent conventional wisdom on China. He argues that bitter memories, rising jealousies, major dislocations, and a decline in the authority of the political system and the power of its top leadership may well produce future upheaval. Miles's argument needs to be considered by all those who think about the future of the world's largest country and its potential impact on the rest of us.' --Kenneth Lieberthal, author of 'Governing China'
