`Professor Sea-Jin Changs book is a must-read for scholars and analytically minded practitioners seeking deep insight into competition in the worlds most hotly contested market: China. Multinational Firms in China seamlessly blends rigorous academic research with informative case studies, distilling the complex competitive dynamics that exist between local Chinese enterprises and Western multinational firms. As such, it provides an inspiring model for studying managerial and competitive practices from an ambicultural perspective.' Ming-Jer Chen, Leslie E. Grayson Professor of Business Administration, the Darden School, University of Virginia, and Fellow and Past President, the Academy of Management `Professor Sea-Jin Changs book is a continuation of his stellar research on foreign direct investments in China. This book is data-driven and rich in empirical details and conceptual frameworks. The standard work on FDI in general and FDI in China in particular typically focuses on dynamics at the country, regional, or industry levels. Professor Changs contribution is that he has marshaled impressive firm-level data that allowed him to examine FDI dynamics in far greater details than others have done. I recommend this book highly and enthusiastically.' Yasheng Huang, Professor of International Management, MIT Sloan School of Management `Sea-Jin Chang brings his masterful academic sleuthing and deep knowledge of East Asia to bear on a topic of great salience to academics, managers, and policymakers around the world, how competition in China has unfolded. Like India, China means different things to different people; it is complex enough to encompass many perspectives. Changs embrace of the analytical challenge of dealing with this complexity, through statistical analyses and fieldwork, is what makes Changs analysis relevant and riveting.' Tarun Khanna, Author of Billions of Entrepreneurs and Winning in Emerging Markets
