内容简介

My THIRTY YEARS IN CHINA

A compilation of true-life stories by Westerners who came to China early, all determined to make their mark. They came from a fascinating variety of international backgrounds, with different motivations and skills, different careers and dreams, but with one thing in common: they embraced China 30 years ago – before it was fashionable to do so.

This fascinating collection of memoirs shows China from a previously untold point of view, through the eyes of those early pioneers, who today are independent entrepreneurs and heads of multinational businesses. Their extraordinary experiences of contrasting Chinese and Western customs and behaviours are vividly recalled, and deliver a refreshing perspective on China that we can all relate to.
