world's largest carbon emitter. Exceptionally well-researched and
accessible to specialists and generalists alike, this book should
be on the desk of anyone seriously concerned about climate and
energy policies."

"China is the largest consumer and producer of energy in the world,
and in China's Technological Catch-up Strategy, Michael Rock and
Michael Toman give us an in-depth look at the energy policies,
company strategies and their effects on pollution and technology
acquisition in the Chinese industries of Cement, Iron & Steel,
Aluminum and Paper. A fascinating read for those interested in
peering into the black box of Chinese industrial
operations."
