Summary "Based on extensive fieldwork and interviews with over a hundred Chinese and U.S. government officials, this work casts new light on both the nature of Chinese military power and the regimes that have attempted to constrain it. It will be invaluable for policy makers and analysts and will appeal to scholars of Chinese security issues, foreign policy, international relations, and arms control and disamament."--BOOK JACKET
