    “A thoughtful reconsideration of China’s actual place in the new world order, based on reality rather than fanciful speculation.” —Kirkus Reviews 
 
Can anything prevent China surpassing the United States and becoming the world’s top superpower? While predictions that China’s rise to global supremacy is a near-certainty have resulted in this belief becoming almost conventional wisdom, this book boldly counters such widely held assumptions. Investment strategist Timothy Beardson brings to light the daunting array of challenges that today confront China, as well as the inadequacy of the policy responses. Threats to China come on many fronts, Beardson shows, and by their number and sheer weight these problems will thwart any ambition to become the world’s “Number One power.” 
 
Drawing on extensive research and experience living and working in Asia over the last 35 years, the author spells out China’s situation: an inexorable demographic future of a shrinking labor force, relentless aging, extreme gender disparity, and even a falling population. Also, the nation faces social instability, a devastated environment, a predominantly low-tech economy with inadequate innovation, the absence of an effective welfare safety net, an ossified governance structure, and radical Islam lurking at the borders. Beardson’s nuanced, firsthand look at China acknowledges its historic achievements while tempering predictions of its imminent hegemony with a no-nonsense dose of reality.

    This isn’t an ordinary business book, or an ordinary autobiography. It’s not merely a rollercoaster, either, but an entire theme park full of them: a traumatic childhood, two tragic accidents, multiple descents into darkness and slow climbs back into the light, reckoning with the disease of alcoholism, years working to exhaustion in the trenches, leaving one family to find another, a breakdown and redemption–and that’s just the first half of the story. Here, every stage of life becomes its own rollercoaster: love, marriage, pregnancy, motherhood, all while becoming a first-time founder, CEO, and Christian. Grothe’s dramatic life story merges with a twisting, turning chronicle on the highest highs and lowest lows of business–and of faith–and how all of the above are inextricably intertwined.
