In this gripping, entertaining and deeply thought-provoking study, Michael Tai analyses the basis of trust-or lack of it-between the Chinese and American leaderships. He asks whether these two great nations can bridge the chasm between their vastly different historical experiences and ideological legacies and build the kind of relationship that might lead us towards a cleaner planet, a more stable and fairer financial system and ultimately take us down the road to peace rather than set us on a path to war. It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of this book, for the fate of the world rests largely in their hands. Tim Clissold, author of Mr China and China Rules World peace depends on sensible power sharing based on trust between the two remaining superpowers. Michael Tai's scholarly and deeply insightful book underlines the need to temper the distrustful impulses of each nation's power elites driven by historical prejudices and lack of empathy. An important contribution to the understanding of China-US relations. Professor Hong Hai, former Dean, College of Business, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore This is a masterful and probing study, of how trust in business global relations is precariously pivoted on personal probity and relationships. It should appeal to leaders and students in many disciplines. Professor James M. Houston, Regent College, Vancouver, Canada
