'...a fascinating account of the emergence of India and China as Asia's giant economies... essential reading for comprehending the similarities and contrasts' - Arvind Panagariya, author of IndiaThe Emerging Giant

'Excellent and well-written' – Loren Brandt, author of China's Great Economic Transformation

'A well-written analysis of Chindia's path thus far, its projected growth and potential pitfalls. It's a refreshing read as to where the world is headed without the usual ideological, paranoic or pessimistic filters that many western analysts rely on when looking at Asia's development.' – The Financial Post, Canada

The rapid growth diversity and strategic importance of the emerging Chinese and Indian economies have fired the world's imagination with both hopes and fears for the future. Wendy Dobson's perceptive analysis of changing institutions, demographics and politics paints a thoughtful and surprising picture of India and China as economic powerhouses in the year 2030. Examining past events and current trends, Gravity Shift offers bold predictions of the changes we can expect in key economic and political institutions in China and India – changes that will inform and shape tomorrow's business decisions. Dobson's work anticipates that by 2030 China's economy will be larger than those of the United States, India and Japan. Though its population will be ageing and its growth slowing, India will also come into its own making major strides in modernizing its vast rural population vanquishing illiteracy and emerging as an innovative manufacturing powerhouse. A China–India free trade agreement could well become the foundation of a cooperative Asian economic community. As the world re-evaluates business practices in the wake of the global economic crisis, Gravity Shift provides a clear vision of how India and China will reshape the Asian region, to inform and transform global economic institutions.
