The author identifies an unprecedented opportunity for China to 'shift gears' and avoid the usual problems associated with the automobile industry - including urban air pollution caused by tailpipe emissions, greenhouse gas emissions, and high dependence on oil imports - while spurring economic development.

An inspirational resource for policy makers, scholars, and international policy students.&
