"While the US and Europe focus on the threat posed by Vladimir Putin, their bigger challenge comes from Xi Jinping. But what drives the Chinese president? In this wide-ranging book, journalists Aust and Geiges consider this question by exploring the strengths and weaknesses of the man behind the personality cult. A useful primer on a figure who will shape all our futures." Jonathan Watts, Former East Asia correspondent for the Guardian and president of the Foreign Correspondents' Club of China "This book about Xi Jinping is an original account of the current political condition in China and the trajectory of this political figure of our time. Enriched by authentic details, it tells an untellable story that is grand in scope. Both the book's starting point and its development are interesting and engaging. It traces historical happenings, conveys the characteristics of our time, and demonstrates the authors' in-depth understanding of the subject matter. This depth in the individualized narrative is most needed when we look at politics and history." Ai Weiwei "At this crucial time, it's more important than ever to understand who Xi is and where he came from, all of which can help us better grasp the direction in which he is leading China. That's the task undertaken by Stefan Aust and Adrian Geiges in their new biography of the Chinese leader." The Diplomat "excellent... a well-reasoned and fascinating account" New Internationalist "Refreshing and thought-provoking." Diplomatic Courier "A valuable primer for those who don't know much about today's China or its leader." Rana Mitter "One of the best China books of the year."

Synopsis
If China seems unstoppable, so too does its leader Xi Jinping. As General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and President of China, he commands over 1.4 billion people, in a vast country that spans the prosperous megacities of Beijing and Shanghai and desperately poor rural regions where families still struggle with malnutrition. Today, Xi Jinping faces a series of monumental challenges that would make other global leaders tremble: a trade war with the USA, political unrest in Hong Kong, accusations of genocide in Xinjiang, stuttering economic growth and a devastating global pandemic that originated inside China. But who is Xi Jinping and what does he really want? To rejuvenate China and bring economic prosperity to all its people? To challenge American supremacy and turn China into the world's dominant power? Avoiding both sycophantic flattery and outright condemnation, this new biography by Stefan Aust and Adrian Geiges gets inside the head of one of the world's most mysterious leaders. Skilfully unravelling the hidden story of Xi Jinping's life and career, from his early childhood to his rise to the pinnacles of the Party and the State, they flesh out his views and uncover how he became the most powerful man in the world. This biography of China's leader will be indispensable for anyone interested in China and where it is heading. Also available as an audiobook.

    I sent the seller a friendly request after buying, asking them to please not ship the book in a thin plastic mailer. My message was sent back to me, the seller never saw it or replied. Ebay said that the seller blocks messages. The Book was in fact shipped in a thin plastic mailer. It arrived okay, but sometimes they don't. Bought another book from a different seller at the same time who replied to my message and who ships his books in boxes. Guess who I'll be a repeat buyer with?

    I purchased a number of books at the same time, and they are all in excellent condition, even better than I expected! Great value, especially after the B3G1 free promotion. Packaged nicely, pretty fast shipping. This isn't the first time I bought books from this seller, and I'm sure it won't be the last. Thank you! 😊
