Customer Reviews

informative, provoking and pleasurable reading

For all of us who should know much more about the character and personality of the world's two most populous countries, China and India, The Dragon and the Wild Goose(China and India respectively)this brilliantly conducted tour about these complex societies is both illuminating and rewarding as Jay Taylor, a retired foreign service officer, is the perfect guide. I have recommended this very good book to a number of my well read friends and we all concur:It should be in every class room teaching what we should know about these huge, burgeoning countries going forward in the 21st century.
