I was impressed when I read China’s Greater Bay Area by Jerry Patchell, a passionate scholar. As an academic with research interests in the Greater Bay Area (GBA), this book moved me with its abundant and informative details which are intellectually inspiring and handy. The book is a fantastic read that guides us to explore the historical roots and contemporary growth of the GBA. It deserves a place in your bookshelf!
