Thirty years ago, the idea that China could challenge the United States economically, globally, and militarily seemed unfathomable. Yet today, China is a superpower. By showing how China pursued an "upstart" strategy rather than simply mimicking the US model, Upstart: How China Became a Great Power powerfully demonstrates how China has been able to achieve great power status in such a short period of time - and what it all means for the future of US-China relations.
