Here's the problem: This book was published in 2007, meaning largely researched in 2006, and I read it in 2010. That's an eternity in China investing. I read it all the way through for a broad brush understanding, but information on individual stocks is grossly out of date. He also tends to concentrate on the large caps, while my interest is on the little independent companies. If you are investing in China it's worth scanning, but it's no bible.
