Already the standard text in its field, Sutter's fourth edition updates his balanced analysis of Sino-American relations to include recent sources of tension --June Teufel Dreyer, University of Miami For the first time in the history of US-China relations, China is simultaneously approaching power parity with the United States and turning into a strategic competitor. To make sense of the change and continuity in arguably the most important bilateral relationship, veteran China watcher Robert G. Sutter has written a lucid and remarkably insightful account of the history and contemporary development of US-China relations. He adopts a predominantly realist perspective but is eclectic, meticulously tracking the ups and downs while judiciously uncovering the underlying dynamics in interests and values in the bilateral relations. Sutter's book shows, even if China may not be motivated by a grand strategy, its challenge to the United States is no less serious and protracted. --Yong Deng, U.S. Naval Academy Robert G. Sutter's latest edition of US-China Relations is a very comprehensive, didactic, and balanced analysis of the world's most important bilateral relationship. It shows in particular that not only the present but also the future of this relationship is uncertain. A great tool for teachers and a must read for all students of China and everyone interested in international affairs. --Jean-Pierre Cabestan, French National Center for Scientific Research, Paris, and Hong Kong Baptist University The appearance of the fourth edition of Robert G. Sutter's classic text could not be timelier. A keen analyst of 'the most important bilateral relationship in the world in the twenty-first century, ' Sutter places the Trump and Biden turns in the relationship in broad historical perspective using clear and precise prose. Highly recommended for undergrads, graduate students, and lay readers. --Lowell Dittmer, University of California, Berkeley
