Review:

'Elegantly written and strong on economic analysis' - Malcolm Moore, Saturday Telegraph 'Remarkable for the clarity of its economic and historical analysis and the cogency of his arguments' - Victor Mallet, Financial Times 'Rivals is clever and concise' - Michael Sheridan, Sunday Times

From the Back Cover:

'An important new book ... Asia is the new world. What happens there affects us all - our jobs, our livelihoods, our prospects. It is doubtful if there will be a livelier and more thought-provoking assessment than this one' Richard Whelan, Irish Times'One of the best analyses of the wider picture' Ian Pindar, Guardian

The world is changing, as political and economic power shift further towards Asia. In this penetrating book Bill Emmott shows the ways in which our future will be dominated not by one, but by three Asian giants - China, India and a newly resurgent Japan.

How will competition between the emergent great powers in the East affect the West? What will the potential benefits, tensions and danger zones be? Emmott, former editor of The Economist, is one of the world's most authoritative international commentators. In Rivals he has written the essential book for understanding how this new power game will shape the twenty-first century.

'Striking ... clever and concise' Michael Sheridan, Sunday Times

'Compelling ... a judicious and engaging tour d'horizon' Edward Luce, Literary Review

'Emmott argues convincingly that rivalry among the great Asian powers, rather than between the west and Asia, will drive the twenty-first century' Charles Grant, Prospect

'Even-handed, thorough and accurate' Dan Slater, Finance Asia
