HarperCollins Publishers Inc The Miracle : The Epic Story Of Asia'S Quest For Wealth by Michael Schuman
Spanning nine countries, filled with heroic tales of bold decisions and self-sacrifice, and probing vast historical undercurrents, The Miracle takes readers inside private boardroom meetings, heated business negotiations, factory floors, and presidential cabinet sessions for a behind-the-scenes look at the events that shaped Asias economic ascent - and will shape the world in the century to come. With this insiders view, Michael Schuman uncovers how outsourcing to Asia began, how Asias most successful companies became global corporations, and reveals the technological changes and global economic shifts that made Asias boom possible. Schuman focuses on the compelling human side to this economic story, and readers will meet the political strongmen, the entrepreneurs, and the key policymakers who shared the same dream: to uplift Asia to its proper place of influence in the world and eradicate the poverty around them.show more
