Synopsis

Beijing was not considered a tech contender a decade ago. Now, some call it a leader. America is already behind in critical areas. It is no surprise how Chinese leaders made their regime a tech powerhouse. They first developed and then implemented multiyear plans and projects, adopting a determined, methodical, and disciplined approach. As a result, China’s political leaders and their army of technocrats could soon possess the technologies of tomorrow. America can still catch up. Unfortunately, Americans, focused on other matters, are not meeting the challenges China presents. A whole-of-society mobilization will be necessary for the U.S. to regain what it once had: control of cutting-edge technologies. It is how America got to the moon, and it is the key to winning this century. Americans may not like the fact that they’re once again in a Cold War–type struggle, but they will either adjust to that reality or get left behind.

The author brings to light China's rise in the high-tech world, how they are poised to dominate it. He states the dangers of such a state, for China is really not very benevolent and to be under their domination would be unpleasant. Through planning and theft, they are very close to their goal. He g......more

Goodreads review by Mike on April 20, 2025

Gordon's book is as appropriate for POTUS Trump to heed today as it was in 2020 (when we all knew POTUS DJT had won the WH again and should have been on a 2nd term)... So, POTUS DJT should pay attention to the China Tech Threat and pickup where this author left off in 2020! This is a very brief book.......more

Goodreads review by Bill on December 24, 2020

A quick, but essential read for thinking Americans concerned about China overtaking the U.S. in global technological dominance. The primary take-away? “The Chinese, are replicating the very same behavior they used to gut the manufacturing sector from the United States, and they are applying those te......more

Goodreads review by Theo Milos on November 24, 2023

The sitation with tech in today's society can be described as a war (resembles the cold war, for instance the moon-siutation between US and Soviet). It is between the US and China, and whoever can manage to produce the most and effective will become the great superpower of the century. Some decades......more
