  Editorial Reviews
  Review
  
  "In the pages of the New Yorker, Evan Osnos has
portrayed, explained and poked fun at this new China better than any other writer from the West or the East. In Age of
Ambition, Osnos takes his reporting a step further, illuminating what he calls China’s Gilded Age, its appetites,
challenges and dilemmas, in a way few have done." —John Pomfret, Washington Post
  
  “Age of
Ambition is… a riveting and troubling portrait of a people in a state of extreme anxiety about their identity,
values and future, [and] a China rived by moral crisis and explosive frustration.” —Judith Shapiro, New
York Times
  
  "For those new to China, Mr Osnos beautifully portrays the nation in all its craziness,
providing a ringside seat for the greatest show on earth." —The Economist
  
  "Beautifully written ...
an absolute must-read." —Edward Steinfeld, Harvard Magazine
  
  “China's Gilded Age has been
every bit as fascinating, colorful and tragic as our own — and [Osnos] offers an engrossing account of it…
[He] understands the depths of the transformations, the complexity of the contradictions, and the fragility of the
overall enterprise.”—Chicago Tribune
  
  "Evan Osnos ... has put his keen insight and intrepid
research skills to use in his exploration of the internal intellectual and spiritual infrastructure of China's
rise.”—Dan Blumenthal, The National Interest
  
  “[Osnos] adeptly chronicles…
China's 35-year journey from poverty and collective dogmatism to a dynamic if cut-throat era of competition,
self-promotion and materialism.”—Julie Makinen, Los Angeles Times
  
  “Age of Ambition
[is] eloquent and comprehensive…” —Jonathan Mirsky, New York Times Book Review
  
  "Age of
Ambition is a splendid and entertaining picture of 21st-century China…”—Michael Fathers, Wall Street
Journal
  
  "Evan Osnos gives us twenty-first-century China the way the best American journalists gave us the
Gilded Age—he introduces us to outsized characters, tells tales of aspiration, success, and defeat, rakes the
muck of corruption and repression, and captures the tremendous energy, as well as the darker impulses, of a society in
the throes of a historic transformation." —George Packer, author of The Assassins' Gate and The Unwinding
 

  "The very hardest thing to convey about modern China is the combination of hope and despair, idealism and
crassness, coordinated mass action and chaotic individual scheming, that you encounter each day. Evan Osnos has captured
all parts of this disorienting 'reality,' but he has done so much more. Beautifully written, humane but critical-minded,
funny on every page, Age of Ambition offers a better understanding of China's process of 'becoming' than most people
could ever gain by living there. China veterans and amateurs alike will find it an illuminating and delightful read."
—James Fallows, author of China Airborne
  
  "How often have travelers asked: 'What is the one book
about China that I should read before I depart?' Alas, for years I have had no good answer to this question. But now,
Evan Osnos has provided a stellar candidate. Wonderfully engaging, readable and informative, this vivid tableau of
actors from all walks of Chinese life goes a long way to helping us make sense out of the often confusing complexity
that is today's China." —Orville Schell, coauthor of Wealth and Power: China's Long March to the Twenty-first
Century
  
  "The best book on China I've ever read. Witty, indispensable, and often moving. I look forward to
stealing Evan Osnos's wisdom and passing it off as my own for years to come." —Gary Shteyngart, author of Little
Failure and Super Sad True Love Story
  
  “The rise of China is the biggest story of the past
twenty-five years. Evan Osnos captures the country in all its striving, thunderous diversity, through a narrative that
moves, provokes, and makes us laugh. Age of Ambition is a marvel of great reporting, careful thinking, and powerful
writing.” —Dexter Filkins, author of The Forever War
  
  “For most of a decade, Evan Osnos
has been one of the most energetic, skilled, and thoughtful observers of China. Whether he's accompanying Chinese
tourists to the Best Western in Luxembourg or watching Ai Weiwei blur the lines between performance and protest, Osnos
is always engaging. This is a wonderful book.” —Peter Hessler, author of River Town: Two Years on the
Yangtze and Country Driving: A Chinese Road Trip
  
  “If you have time to read only one book about
China today, read this one. Woven from vignettes of Chinese life at many different levels, it provides unerring insights
into what makes the Chinese the people they are while wearing its learning so lightly that the narrative never flags. It
should be in every tourist’s baggage and every diplomat’s library.”—Philip Short, author of
Mao: A Life
