Review # 1 was written on 2013-08-18 00:00:00 Erick Rosenholm In a growing morass of books on China / India and economic growth, this book stands out as having little to offer. Its trite, obvious, and lacks insight. It's garbage. It's not well-written, errors in English abound. Tables lack essential labels. Uses the wrong word, giving misleading impressions. Actually, the author is a full on moron - take this section " In 2000, this ratio was 65:41, while in 2001 it became 82:32. That is, the gap widened from 24 percentage points to 50 percentage points, assigning China a higher position on their scale." He has a citation for it - but he didn't understand the math, those values are not percentage points.... The long section talking about the high likelihood of free trade between the two is particularly hallucinatory, a sign the author has no idea about either China or India - countries that remain inherently unwilling to ever sign free trade with anyone still. I do not recommend it.
