After residing for 10 years in Taipei, Taiwan, author Troy Parfitt embarks on a journey through the Chinese universe ostensibly to test the theory that China is rising toward a position of global hegemony. In addition to examining China's so-called great rise, the books offers up a portrait of China at the present and comparisons of it in the recent past. A thesis-driven travel narrative, Why China Will Never Rule the World relays what travelling around the Middle Kingdom feels like, with cultural, historical, political, and philosphical asides. No longer will commentators have an excuse for speaking about China in the abstract.
