Pax Pacifica

by Steve Pieczenik

Few authors have dramatized the protracted struggle between East and West as well as Steve Pieczenik. In Pax Pacifica, he draws on his experience as an important actor in the struggle, and then creates a complex plot of high intrigue, deception, shifting loyalties, and war and peace in Asia.

His grasp of Chinese strategies and historical anecdotes gives depth and authenticity to his plot, characters and dialogue. This book is an exciting story, and what he suggests could happen in Asia grows naturally out of what is actually happening in Asia today. The sweep of this book, the author's grasp of real trends and forces that could change the face of Asia and which many of our policy wonks have not grasped, and his intimate knowledge and justified cynicism about how the world turns, makes this book both entertaining and enlightening scenario of what could be in Asia. " – James R Lilley, former CIA chief in Beijing, former U.S. Ambassador to South Korea and director of Asian Studies at the American Enterprise Institute, for the Washington Post Book World.

Reviews

[William Walter · Rating 2 out of 5]

Kind of weak--the long convoluted storyline isn't well supported along the way, and many of the supposed psychological twists are not that clever. Sorry

Zbytečně moc překombinované

[Troy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Not a bad book kind of a differnt pace more of a mind game book.
