In that case I'd recommend
The Hundred-Year Marathon: China's Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower [0]
by Hudson Institute's China expert.
and
Unrestricted Warfare: China's Master Plan to Destroy America [1]
These are rather hawkish but unfortunately also nailing the truth.

- pm90 7y agoAny emergent superpower will want to replace the existing one. China hawks seem to rule Washington but Chinas prosperity has been beneficial for the rest of the world by decreasing the costs of electronics and manufactured goods. It goes without question though that the largest and most populous countries on earth will rapidly grow (barring geopolitical events that completely break the system) and eventually attain the status of coequal powers, if they manage to not start more wars.
- FabHK 7y agoFWIW, the book seems misnamed: hundred years is hardly a marathon from the Chinese perspective. Maybe not quite a sprint, but a medium distance hike. Their historical perspective encompasses millennia.
