and conversations seem to take place, is an eclectic mix of Chinese tea house and Western coffee shop. Thus, begins Notes from a Beijing Coffee Shop, in which the author provides a series of
fascinating observations of today s fast-changing China. Jon Geldart has spent the past five years in Beijing. His conversations with Chinese business leaders, opinion formers and ordinary
Chinese provide deep insights into Chinese life, business and culture. Engaging and enlightening, the stories and profiles in this book are a gateway to seeing how people are really do business
and living in the new China.
