Studwell (founder and editor, China Economic Quarterly offers a pessimistic view of the possibilities that China holds out for the enrichment of foreign investors and traders. He examines the efforts of various economic actors to open up the Chinese market over history only to have their dreams of the vast billions buying their products dashed by political and economic realities. He discusses how the Chinese economy, government policies, and Chinese business culture all contribute to the ineffectiveness of foreign entrepreneurs. After a brief introductory chapter on early efforts from Marco Polo onward, the material focuses on the period following Deng Xiaoping's economic reforms.
