About This Book
Describes the way political development in China influenced the diplomatic and military rivalry between the United States and Soviet Union in East Asia at the end of World War II and the effect Soviet-American rivalry had on the struggle for political power in China. Uses a four-cornered pattern of analysis, giving equal importance to explaining the perceptions and actions of each party -- the Chinese Communist Party, the Kuomintang of China, the United States, and the Soviet Union.
