When China rules the world - Martin Jacques

Soon, China
will rule the world. But in doing so, it will not become more Western.

Since the first publication of
When China Rules the World, the
landscape of world power has shifted dramatically. In the three years since the
first edition was published, When China
Rules the World has proved to be a remarkably prescient book,
transforming the nature of the debate on China.

Now, in this greatly expanded and
fully updated edition, boasting nearly 300 pages of new material, and backed up
by the latest statistical data, Martin Jacques renews his assault on
conventional thinking about China's ascendancy, showing how its impact will be
as much political and cultural as economic, changing the world as we know
it.

First published in 2009 to
widespread critical acclaim - and controversy - When China Rules the World: The End of the Western
World and the Birth of a New Global Order has sold a quarter of a
million copies, been translated into eleven languages, nominated for two major
literary awards, and is the subject of an immensely popular TED
talk.
