Recenzii
Comprehensive, innovative, thought-provoking analysis of the world's largest carbon emitter. Exceptionally well-researched and accessible to specialists and generalists alike, this book should be on the desk of anyone seriously concerned about climate and energy policies.
China is the largest consumer and producer of energy in the world, and in China's Technological Catch-up Strategy, Michael Rock and Michael Toman give us an in-depth look at the energy policies, company strategies and their effects on pollution and technology acquisition in the Chinese industries of Cement, Iron & Steel, Aluminum and Paper. A fascinating read for those interested in peering into the black box of Chinese industrial operations.
