"Explicitly miming Joseph Levenson's trilogy on the roots and meaning of the 1949 revolution," writes the Journal of Asian Studies review, "this book explores the origins and nature of the 1978 reforms and their potential consequences for the world," and brings historical precedents and comparisons to bear."
Andrew Erikson, writing in the U.S. Naval War College Review, commended Volume II: Grandeur and Peril in the Next World Order (2015) to "general readers in search of intellectually stimulating but accessible material, to teachers of survey courses at the advanced undergraduate or graduate level, and to specialists seeking insights into their own studies of Chinese history."
A China Scholar's Long March: Collected Writings, 1978-2015 (2019) is a selection of his essays, reviews, and commentary.
