    Strikingly beautiful with a voluptuous figure to match, the raven haired Miranda was often seen galloping madly across the cotton fields on her Georgia plantation. Riding bareback on a fast horse appealed to the fifteen year old rather than have to submit to the stuffy rules of a southern belle. Her free spirited nature often gets her into situations that send her black mistress reeling in a tirade. Once meeting the intriguing, handsome Luke Garrison at her debutante, his unexpected sensual kiss leaves her distracted and confused. Her rebellious attitude suddenly changes, after unexplained emotions have been stirred within her. She takes risks meeting the roguish Luke in forbidden areas. Always in charge of her own destiny, she will not stop until she has satisfied her curiosity. No matter what, she is determined to explore this exciting new feeling. Convinced she is falling in love, she must master this untamed Mr. Garrison at any cost to her own reputation. Her determination to have him throws her into an exciting danger. The danger of love. Little did she know that her quest to win Luke would send her straight into danger.

    China succeeded Japan as the world's second largest economy in 2010 many predict it will grow to be larger than the United States by 2020. Three decades ago, China was a rural economy with barely any exports. The rise of China presents the United States with a "Sputnik Moment," in the words of President Obama. Will we rise to the challenge as we did during the space race, or will we rationalize and scapegoat our way to explaining why we can't compete?Ann Lee provides an unvarnished assessment of China's political economy and governance structure, analyzing the sources of China's success and identifying lessons that can be applied by other governments regardless of ideology. As a Chinese-American who emigrated to the U.S. from Hong Kong at the age of seven, Lee is uniquely situated to help Americans understand how China sees its own society and how to adapt some Chinese practices to benefit the U. S. For example, the Chinese economy is designed to make the kind of unproductive and unrestrained financial speculation that has devastated much of the West impossible. Aspiring Chinese politicians have to pass tests to prove their competency to govern. The Chinese homicide rate is a fifth of what it is in the U.S. While not blind to China's shortcomings, Lee argues that rather than demonizing China, a more productive use of time and resources is to learn from this rising power in order to maximize the talent of millions of people.
