Angeline Ng Just started the book today, and couldn't put it down. I haven't read a good book in a while and certainly enjoying this current read.

Junaid Ahmed I would love to read this book.
Gilberto Calderin I'm a freshman at high school and i have read " Out of Mao's Shadow " as a school requirement. Therefore, this book is being read all over my school. What i have to say is that this is an amazing book to read and i recommend it to anyone to undertsand and learn from it as well. Philip P. Pan is an inspiration to me and a motivation to becoming a journalist myself.

This is a very good book and highly recommended. In reading this you find inspiration for the cause of reform in China, and the number of brave Chinese that are fighting for it in their daily lifes. China is a very complex country and this book captures all of that complexity and doesn't reduce all of the challenges f...acing China and its people to black and white frameworks, which happens all too often in the discussions about China.Read More

Peter Shay Whether or not you love or hate Beijing, I recommend reading "Out of Mao's Shadow" by Philip Pan, a fascinating grouping of stories that marvelously describe the complexity of present-day life in Beijing.

Hello,
I am an italian student and I would like to translate some passages taken from the book "Out of Mao's shadow" by Philip P.Pan from English to Italian for my final exam. That's the reason why I need to know if the translation rights have already been sold in Italy. I must add that I don't intend to do it for money.There is someone here that could help me?
Thank you

Lou Allora Phil, congratulations on the book. I've spent a lot of time in Shanghai over the past couple of years for work. Can't wait to get into your book.

As a student beginning to study Mandarin I was thrilled to find a book that gave me a deeper insight into the current economic and political issues in modern China. I want to thank you, Phil, for all the time and energy you put into conducting interviews and research in such a vast country while overcoming the challeng...ing language barrier. I'm thankful to now have a better understanding of China's development from an insider's perspective- and I believe this book is a crucial stepping stone towards a global understanding of China. Good luck with all of your future endeavors!Read More

Hey Phil, Congratulations on the book. I've been waiting to read this ever since you got posted to Beijing... still waiting. Had my hands on a copy when it got released in Sydney but foolishly put it down. It's hard to find now, but I'm looking. Although I probably could just tap my feet and wait for the paperback edi...tion I guess. If it is anything like the reporting you were pumping out of China it's going to be well worth the wait. Hope you're enjoying the Moscow summer.Read More
