Description: "This new book is the first full account, inside or outside government, of Chinaʹs efforts to acquire foreign technology. Based on primary sources ... the book lays bare Chinaʹs efforts to prosper technologically through others' achievements. For decades, China has operated an elaborate system to spot foreign technologies, acquire them by all conceivable means, and convert them into weapons and competitive goods -- without compensating the owners... Drawing upon previously unexploited Chinese language sources, the authors begin by placing the new research within historical context, before examining the Peopleʹs Republic of Chinaʹs policy support for economic espionage, clandestine technology transfers, theft through cyberspace and its impact on the future of the US"--Publisher's description.
