About this title

Synopsis

China's rise as one of the world's largest economies has been widely documented. What's less well known is the country's increasingly impressive capacity to invent, design and develop important scientific and technological products. Today, China is acknowledged as a global scientific and technological power. It now leads the world in terms of R&D personnel, and the number of authorised patents and international papers published. In many Sci-tech areas, China demonstrates its intense vitality and innovation. An Overview of China's sci-tech Innovation over the Past Decade charts the story of a deep-water drilling project that has transformed oil and gas exploration, and explains how China's broadband mobile communication techniques have become internationally recognised. This book is edited and published by ACA Publishing in association with CNPIEC as part of a five-book series called 'Exploring Modern China'. An Overview of China's sci-tech Innovation over the Past Decade gives a fascinating insight into many of these inventions, from the Shenzhou IX spacecraft and Tiangong-1 module, to a supercomputer that is playing a key role in national defence and economic development. For readers seeking to understand the latest Sci-tech developments in China as well as for those who just want to know more about China, this book will prove to be an invaluable resource.
