Reviews
"Feldman has written this well-researched, informative work "to investigate the ethical and cultural aspects of Chinese-American business relations." ...He examines assumptions Americans bring to Chinese negotiations by scrutiny of relevant literature and empirical analyses. He also points out that the Chinese are just as victimized by their corrupt systems as are foreign business partners. Finally, Feldman compares the experiences of American and Chinese businesses in China. Because the primary research in this area is still rather scant, his data collection method was interviews. This firsthand, insider information is vital to understanding the way business is practiced in China. Summing Up: Highly recommended." - L. K Miller, Western Kentucky University in CHOICE
