Long Description 1 am very happy and extremely proud of our "Management in Asia" class of 1996/97 for producing such a comprehensive business handbook on China, which focuses on Shanghai and its surrounding regions. Their trip to Shanghai, as part of Professor Chong's "Management in Asia" course has certainly exposed them to the Chinese business environment and society as well as to business practices there. 1 am sure the Professor and his class has spent considerable time to complete this book which covers almost every area a business person will generally wish to know about China. In a period where our University is globalizing and where our small and medium businesses need to look overseas for their business expansion and development, both the students' trip to Shanghai and the book are extremely timely. However, this book is not intended to be a complete reference as it would take volumes to cover in detail ali the different topics. Nevertheless, it does provide a sufficiently broad overall picture and quick overview of the Chinese business environment and opportunities in Shanghai and its surrounding regions. Where greater detail is required, the specialist should be consulted.
