Author Description

Published in 1980, the first edition of this work was a comprehensive account of the economic, social and political workings of Hong Kong, its financial and legal structures, and the course of foreign investment in the territory. Four years later, the second edition incorporated in the same format updated discussion of the significant events and important changes which had taken place in the territory since the book's first publication. Now with a new postscript on Hong Kong in the 1990s, this revised edition continues to provide a guide to the territory's business environment. Through text and tables the authors, prominent scholars in law, management, economics, sociology, political science and Asian studies, provide an overview of Hong Kong business and investment.
