About this ebook
From a former President of the United Nations Security Council, an authoritative look at the US, China, and the defining geopolitical contest of the twenty-first century
“Mahbubani has written an excellent and important book on the biggest question in international affairs: how will the relationship between the US and China evolve?” —Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator, Financial Times
China and America are world powers without serious rivals. They eye each other warily across the Pacific; they communicate poorly; there seems little natural empathy. A massive geopolitical contest has begun.
Has China Won? is the definitive guide to the deep fault lines in the relationship, a clear-eyed assessment of the risk of any confrontation, and a bracingly honest appraisal of the strengths and weaknesses of these ambitious and eccentric superpowers.

I've read up to Chapter 6 (plus the Conclusion) and i find the book riveting ...the questions raised thought-provoking. As mentioned by the author ... the world would be a better place if China and US work together for the common good of mankind rather than self-seeking

Not many books these days on America or China or on both are as good, impartial, well-researched, intellectually honest & unbiased as this one ! Recommended to all my friends, students, and anyone who so sorely missed a truly fair view of China during these days of american hegemonic arrogance! A must read book for the year 2020 and many more years to come!
