From AudioFile Once a journalist living in China, the author changes his point of reference to describe China as the outside world sees it. For example, he explores how we ignore Chinas political repression and oneparty system in our zeal to trade with her. Narrator Jeff Riggenbachs deep voice reads the material straight from the page. His no frills style and perfect diction never drop or mispronounce a word, allowing listeners to concentrate on the information. What little Chinese he must pronouncethe names of leaders and large citiesgives him no pause and is of minor importance. Readers will learn hardly anything about China itself but will hear many ideas about how a totalitarian state thrives in an increasingly globalized economy. J.A.H.
