This book surveys the complicated history of U.S.-Chinese
relations. After two brief chapters providing historical context,
the focus shifts to the mid-twentieth century, the wartime
alliance, the war's bitter aftermath, and the decades since World
War II, including the path from normalisation to China's hosting of
the 2008 Summer Olympics. The author traces the ways in which the
two countries have managed the blend of common and competitive
interests in their economic and strategic relationships; the
shifting political base for Sino-American relations within each
country; the emergence and dissolution of rival political
coalitions supporting and opposing the relationship; the evolution
of each society's perceptions of the other; and ongoing differences
regarding controversial topics like Taiwan and human rights. The
author's early years in China, American education, and career as a
China expert and an advisor on U.S.-China relations and cultural
affairs for over fifty years, have afforded him unique
opportunities to observe and participate in the development of this
important relationship.
