Ben Mah's book is an excellent warning of the problems - indeed, economic depth charges - that were planted in China by the neoliberals who have destroyed nearly every economy where their advice was followed. "China and the World" describes what China should accept and what it should reject in Western advice. This book explodes the myth of "China's Rise", reveals the truth about how China's economic policies have been misguided by neoliberalism. This is a good book that anyone concerned about China's future should not miss. The essays in this book deserve great attention. This book helps us re-think policies and eliminate the influence of neoliberal ideology. Mah's work is a biting revelation of the unpleasant reality that lies behind such currently popular buzzwords as "privatization", "marketization", "freedom of capital flow" and "free trade".
