This ground-breaking book spans 60 years of modern Chinese history
from the much neglected non-communist perspective. Concentrating on
Wang Sheng's career in relation to Chiang Kai-Shek's extraordinary
son Chiang Ching-Kuo, it shows that the KMT were perfecting the
methods that were to make Taiwan an East Asian Tiger' economy at
the very point that they lost' the mainland. The book also provides
a fascinating insight into Taiwan's efforts to aid South Vietnam
and Cambodia from 1960 as the Indochina war unfolded.
