China-US 2039: The Endgame? Building Trust Over Future Decades

September 03 , 2020

The four-star U.S. navy veteran’s new book is based on years of military and business experience and informed by many prominent American and Chinese decision makers in both countries and looks critically at the present US policy toward China.

China-US Focus Editor-at-Large James Chau connected with the author in August and discussed over Zoom the takeaways from the book, attempting to understand how the author’s views were informed by his military career during the Cold War between the Soviets and the Americans and what China and the U.S., in particular their militaries, can work to build trust to avoid costly confrontations and conflicts.

The book is available on Amazon and can be purchased in bookstores.
