Praise for the previous edition:

"A book to savour." —John Adams, Asian Affairs

"Clear, comprehensive, and focused on the most crucial issues facing the country."—Marc Blecher, Oberlin College
This magnificently produced atlas provides a unique visual survey of the profound economic, political, and social changes taking place in China, as well as their implications for the world at large.

China has the world's fastest-growing economy and is the second-largest trading nation. With its pro-entrepreneurial outlook and population of 1.3 billion, it offers unique opportunities for domestic and overseas investors. This dynamic volume provides an abundance of information on China's new wealth, growing unemployment, mass migration to the cities, and trade disputes.

Completely Revised and Updated:

* Vivid full-color maps convey a wealth of information quickly and efficiently

* Comprehensive information on China's population, employment, agriculture, industry, and economics
