Description

Book Synopsis
Building a Nation at War argues that the Chinese Nationalist government’s retreat inland during the Sino-Japanese War, its consequent need for inland resources, and its participation in new relationships with the United States led to fundamental changes in how the Nationalists engaged with science and technology as tools to promote development.

Trade Review
Greene offers a desperately needed window onto the formation and operation of largely unstudied Chinese institutions…More than an institutional history, however, Greene’s book is an exemplary transnational history. -- Judd Kinzley * H-Net Reviews *
