With the surge in global attention to Taiwan – largely due to concern that it could be a flashpoint for US–China conflict – there is a pressing need for greater understanding of Taiwan’s history, politics, society, political economy, foreign relations, and its complicated relationship with China. In this timely and highly informative primer, Sullivan and Nachman provide excellent and succinct analysis of all these issues. They rightfully urge the world to eschew viewing Taiwan solely through the lens of superpower politics, and instead listen to Taiwanese voices and evaluate Taiwan on its own merits. The book is a must-read for anyone who has been fascinated by coverage of Taiwan in the media and wants to learn more. It will also benefit individuals who have a general interest in Asia, democracy, and peace. -- Bonnie S. Glaser, Managing Director, Indo-Pacific Program, German Marshall Fund
