Product info

A hugely informative and readable book about how much China is doing - and needs to do - to spur the clean energy revolution that is a crucial element in the fight against climate change. I highly recommend it.<b>Todd Stern, Former Special Envoy for Climate Change under President Obama</b><br /><br />Finamore has written an impressively well-researched and truly fascinating account of China's fitful odyssey to climate consciousness. In an otherwise pretty bleak global tableau, this progress offers some welcome grounds for hope.<b>Orville Schell, Arthur Ross Director, Center on US-China Relations, Asia Society<br /><br /></b>A must-read.<br /><i><b>Make Wealth History<br /><br /></b></i>'Barbara Finamore has written a highly readable and informative overview of China's role in the global climate change battle. Will China Save the Planet? is a good primer for environmental policy analysts and anyone else interested in studying feasible solutions to climate change, humanity's greatest threat.' <br /><i><b>Eurasia Review<br /><br /></b></i>"If you want to read one book on China's energy and environmental transformation, Finamore's lucid volume is the one."<i><b><br /><b><i>Asian Review of Books<br /><br /></i></b></b></i>'Authoritative and comprehensive'. <i><b><b><i><b><i><br /><i>The South China Morning Post</i> <br /><br /></i></b></i></b></b></i>Finamore is the right person to write such a concise and informative book. . . . She takes a balanced approach--being an outsider but drawing on her firsthand knowledge and experience of an insider, thus making the narrative and analysis concrete and convincing.<i><b><b><i><b><i><br /><b><i>China Review International<br /><br /></i></b></i></b></i></b></b></i>"For all its importance, it is quite hard to follow environmental developments in China. One the most useful resources I've come across is Barbara Finamore's book <i>Will China Save the Planet</i>?"<i><b><b><i><b><i><b><i><br /><b><i>The Earthbound Report</i></b></i></b></i></b></i></b></b><b><br /></b></i>
