China’s Vision of Victory has been featured in numerous national and international television programs from Maria Bartiromo’s Sunday Morning Futures to The 11th Hour with Brian Williams. The Financial Times called China’s Vision of Victory “one of the first books to make the explicit argument for containment of China by the west.”
Praise for China’s Vision of Victory and for Jonathan D. T. Ward:
“Jonathan Ward has provided an eye-opening analysis of China’s strategic ambitions. He effectively demolishes the longstanding expectation in Washington that a prosperous rising China will be content to integrate itself into the Western international order – to the contrary, he demonstrates that Beijing’s objectives include nothing less than renovating that order to serve China’s own strategic interests. As the United States debates the future of its China policy, China’s Vision of Victory deserves the widest reading.”
– ASHLEY J. TELLIS, Tata Chair for Strategic Affairs, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
“The extraordinary rise of China is unprecedented in world history and the biggest geopolitical development of the first two decades of the 21st Century; it is likely to continue to be so for decades to come. Jonathan Ward is very well qualified to document China’s extraordinary growth, and he describes it superbly in China’s Vision of Victory, a powerful work that is sure to provoke thought and serious reflection.”
— GENERAL DAVID PETRAEUS, US Army (Ret.), former commander of coalition forces in Iraq and Afghanistan and US Central Command, and former Director of the CIA
“Jonathan Ward is a young scholar with not only all the necessary linguistic and travel credentials, but with something even more important, a vision of history rooted in geography that allows him to espy the future.”
– ROBERT D. KAPLAN, author of Monsoon: The Indian Ocean and the Future of American Power
“Dr. Ward tells an absorbing and well-researched story about China’s grand strategy to achieve ‘supremacy among all nations’ by 2049 and the role of Western capital in fueling China’s rise. China’s Vision of Victory is a must-read for Western policy makers, intelligence agencies, chief executives, global investors, and globally-minded thinkers. It is a real-life page-turner, if ever there was one.”
– J. KYLE BASS, Founder & Chief Investment Officer of Hayman Capital Management
