Eric Harwit is Professor of Asian Studies at the University of
Hawaii. A 1984 graduate of Cornell University, he received a
diploma from the University of International Business and Economics
in Beijing in 1990, and his Ph.D. in political science from the
University of California at Berkeley in 1992.
Professor Harwit is a frequent speaker at international
conferences, including the World Economic Forum regional conference
in Beijing, the Harvard Asia Business Conference, and the Yale
University Business in China conference. He and his work have been
cited in Time magazine, Business Week, The Economist, Asian Wall
Street Journal, National Public Radio, and other print and
broadcast media outlets.
`China's Telecommunication Revolution will be the benchmark study
for students, researchers and scholars of China's media and
telecommunications. It will be an essential reading in courses on
global media policy and regional development. In addition, Harwit's
book is clearly written, making it accessible for non-academic
readers interested in China's policy-making institutions.'
Michael Keane (QUT), Queensland University of Technology's
"China-East Asia-Media-New Media" Publications Reviews
`a welcome addition... certainly a book that should be read by a
wider audience interested in China's ascendancy as an economic
superpower'
