"The book makes a large contribution to our understanding of the status and progress of China's shipbuilding industry. All of the authors have made very good use of the available public sources, including the Chinese government's policy announcements and regulations, industrial analyses, and individual enterprises' publications, and this enables them to make a knowledgeable assessment of the progress in China's shipbuilding industry." --The China Journal "So what are the Chinese thinking?... To what end? I don't know.' Hopefully, we'll get more books like Chinese Naval Shipbuilding to help us figure that out."--Naval History Book Reviews "...a professor of naval strategy at the Naval War College, presents 17 chapters written by naval, academic, and industry experts and linguistics to penetrate the shroud over the Chinese shipbuilding industry..."--Seapower Magazine "What are China's prospects for success in key areas of naval shipbuilding? What are the likely results for China's Navy? What are the implications for the U.S. Navy? To address these critical, complex issues, this book brings together some of the world's leading experts and linguistic analysts, often pairing them in research teams. These professionals have commanded ships at sea, led shipbuilding programs ashore, toured Chinese vessels and production facilities, invested in Chinese shipyards and advised others in their investment, and analyzed and presented important data to top-level decision makers in times of crisis.

Synopsis
Answers three pressing questions: What are China's prospects for success in key areas of naval shipbuilding? What are the likely results for China's navy? What are the implications for the US Navy? To address these issues, this volume assembles some of the world's leading experts and linguistic analysts, often pairing them in research teams., China's shipbuilding industry has grown more rapidly than any other in modern history. Commercial shipbuilding output jumped thirteen-fold from 2002-12, ensuring that Beijing has largely reached its goal of becoming the world's leading shipbuilder. Yet progress is uneven, with military shipbuilding leading overall but with significant weakness in propulsion and electronics for military and civilian applications. It has never been more important to assess what ships China can supply its navy and other maritime forces with, today and in the future. Chinese Naval Shipbuilding answers three pressing questions: What are China's prospects for success in key areas of naval shipbuilding? What are the likely results for China's navy? What are the implications for the U.S. Navy? To address these critical issues, this volume assembles some of the world's leading experts and linguistic analysts, often pairing them in research teams. These sailors, scholars, industry professionals, and government specialists have commanded ships at sea, led shipbuilding programs ashore, toured Chinese vessels and production facilities, invested in Chinese shipyards, and analyzed and presented important data to top-level decision-makers in times of crisis. In synthesizing their collective insights, this book fills a key gap in our understanding of China, its shipbuilding industry, its navy, and what it all means.
