Publisher's summary

An examination of the US-China relationship that charts a new path for America focusing on its existing advantages.

Ryan Hass charts a path forward in America's relationship and rivalry with China rooted in the relative advantages America already possesses. Hass argues that while competition will remain the defining trait of the relationship, both countries will continue to be impacted - for good or ill - by their capacity to coordinate on common challenges that neither can solve on its own, such as pandemic disease, global economic recession, climate change, and nuclear nonproliferation.

Hass makes the case that the United States will have greater success in outpacing China economically and outshining it in questions of governance if it focuses more on improving its own condition at home than on trying to impede Chinese initiatives. He argues that the task at hand is not to stand in China's way and turn a rising power into an enemy in the process but to renew America's advantages in its competition with China.

Missing the point

While I liked the book and was glad to hear his views, I feel he’s missing the point.
China is stealing technology patents and while he was in President Obama’s cabinet he encouraged it.
He was more destructive to both sides and probably helped President Xi get re-elected.

Lacks overall cohesion

Boring overall. Some highlights but reads more like a collection of essays on a range of China/USA issues that never seems to dig too deep on any of them. Was looking forward to it. Disappointing to be honest. Not as engaging as “We Have Been Harmonized” or “In the Dragon's Shadow.”
