Reviews
"""China sits at the heart of global manufacturing -- and its innovations in logistics are an important reason why it's likely to stay that way. In this important new book, Clifford and Logan offer a rich and timely appraisal of the complex webs that define China's deep web of supply chains and provide essential strategic guidance for industry professionals."" - Dr. Parag Khanna, Founder & CEO of AlphaGeo and internationally bestselling author of Connectography and The Future is Asian “China's logistics industry has experienced the stages of traditional logistics and modern logistics, and is now entering the era of intelligent and green logistics… My friend Paul [Clifford] has participated deeply in the reform process of transforming…many Chinese logistics enterprises, and has become a witness to this history. This book is his unique observation [in which] he has extracted many important conclusions, such as [on] the huge impact of Chinese government policies, on the Belt and Road Initiative and e-commerce logistics…This book deserves attention from readers who are interested in the development of Chinese logistics.” - Dr. Wu Youxi, Executive Director of China Logistics Society, Vice Chairman of Expert Committee of China Warehousing and Distribution Association, Visiting Professor at the Ministry of Commerce and at Beijing Jiaotong University. “In an increasingly volatile and complex global supply chain environment, an understanding of how China has emerged as a world leader in logistics is crucial. Clifford and Logan not only provide the reader with insight on the market’s development but deliver a clear ‘horizon scan’ of potential risks in an uncertain future.” - Professor John Manners-Bell, Founder, Foundation for Future Supply Chain and Author of ‘The Death of Globalization’. “It’s impossible to understand global supply chains and logistics without understanding China’s evolving role, strategies, and tactics. China Logistics analyzes drivers and dynamics, from geopolitics and trade networks to the role of technology in improving efficiency and sustainability. This book will help readers to think clearly about the obvious, probable ""gray rhino” challenges across China’s logistics landscape.” - Michele Wucker, Author of The Gray Rhino"
