[One of the most notoriously wrong “expert” is Gordon Chang who actually lived in Shanghai and Hong Kong.]


Gordon Chang is an expert only if expertise is conferred via DNA (he’s half Chinese, via his dad) and business experience. Whereas Waldron has been writing monographs on China and translating obscure historical works from the original Chinese for maybe 50 years.

"Quite simply the best book [The Coming Collapse of China] I know about China's future. Gordon Chang writes marvelously and knows China well. I hope everyone concerned with that country will pay careful consideration to what he sees ahead."
