'China's economic development was an economic miracle that only thirty years ago no one would have predicted. It has become the world's second largest economy and the world's factory. China's Innovation Challenge is an erudite and comprehensive examination of whether China can grow beyond the world's factory to become an innovative powerhouse with a large prosperous middle class. Organized as a debate among the top Chinese and Western economists and management scholars, I was fascinated by the depth of the insights and multi-faceted perspectives of the contributors. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to those interested in the future of the Chinese economy and its potential to become an innovation giant.'
