Jacques Martin
When China Rules the World - The End of the Western World and the Birth of a New Global Order
The Penguin Press 2009. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. From the book ""A groundbreaking investigation of how China's rise as an economic superpower will alter the cultural political and ethnic balance of global power in the twenty-first century. According to conservative estimates by 2027 China will overtake the United States as the world's largest economy and by 2050 its economy will be twice as large as that of the United States. But as Jacques reveals Chinese influence will extend well beyond the economic sphere. The full social cultural and political repercussions of China's ascendancy--for itself and the rest of the globe--have been surprisingly little explained or understood until now.""
