Lee, the founding father of modern Singapore and its prime minister from 1959 to 1990, has honed his wisdom during more than fifty years on the world stage. Almost single-handedly responsible for transforming Singapore into a Western-style economic success, he offers a unique perspective on the geopolitics of East and West. American presidents from Richard Nixon to Barack Obama have welcomed him to the White House.

Penguin Audio presents Has the West Lost It? by Kishore Mahbubani, read by Jonathan Keeble. The West's centuries-old status as the centre of global wealth and power is coming to an end. As the new powers - China and India from Asia and others from Africa and Latin America - rise to the top of the world's pecking order, how should the West react? Kishore Mahbubani argues passionately and provocatively that the West can no longer impose its power and ideals on the world at large and - paradoxically - that only by admitting its decline can the West set itself up for strategic success in the long term.

According to even the most conservative estimates, China will overtake the United States as the world's largest economy by 2027 and will ascend to the position of world economic leader by 2050. But the full repercussions of China's ascendancy-for itself and the rest of the globe-have been surprisingly little explained or understood.

The 21st century has seen a rise in the global middle class that brings an unprecedented convergence of interests and perceptions, cultures and values. Kishore Mahbubani is optimistic. We are creating a new global civilization. Eighty-eight percent of the world's population outside the West is rising to Western living standards, and sharing Western aspirations. Yet Mahbubani, one of the most perceptive global commentators, also warns that a new global order needs new policies and attitudes.

In AI Superpowers, Kai-fu Lee argues powerfully that because of these unprecedented developments in AI, dramatic changes will be happening much sooner than many of us expected. Indeed, as the US-Sino AI competition begins to heat up, Lee urges the US and China to both accept and to embrace the great responsibilities that come with significant technological power.

Publisher's Summary
The defining geopolitical contest of the 21st century is between China and the US. But is it avoidable? And if it happens, is the outcome already inevitable?
China and America are world powers without serious rivals. They eye each other warily across the Pacific; they communicate poorly; there seems little natural empathy. A massive geopolitical contest has begun.
America prizes freedom; China values freedom from chaos. America values strategic decisiveness; China values patience.America is becoming society of lasting inequality; China a meritocracy. America has abandoned multilateralism; China welcomes it.
Kishore Mahbubani, a diplomat and scholar with unrivalled access to policymakers in Beijing and Washington, has written the definitive guide to the deep fault lines in the relationship, a clear-eyed assessment of the risk of any confrontation, and a bracingly honest appraisal of the strengths and weaknesses, and superpower eccentricities, of the US and China.

Required reading and well balanced
Required reading and a very well balanced book in light of the incessant propaganda and disinformation coming from the western countries, as it stands in 2020. China is reclaiming it’s place in the world, they are doing so pragmatically and peacefully, with the world returning to millennia-long equilibrium in the 21st century.

Amazing insight into China's rise and future
A much needed discussion that intertwines history, politics, psychology, and philosophy with political opinions of all sides.
I feel more could have been said about China's poverty alleviation, revolutionary appeal it had amongst the working classes and minorities of the West, China's sponsorship of the Taliban alongside the USA-CIA during the Sino-Soviet split, Maoist revolutionaries in India and the Philippines causing havoc amidst the poverty and corruption caused by Western-styled economics. I believe Kishore is more pro-Western and bypasses the issue of class which has been a historical fact of time immemorial.
Nevertheless, as Western civilisation and its citizens are unaware of China's complexity and its phenomenal rise, and even are fearful of mentioning the facts and analysing things in a rational and logical way - Kishore Mahbubani does a wonderful job exposing what is missing in the uninformed Western mentality.

Biased but thought provoking
If you can suffer the writers bias and weed through the usual liberal hyperbole it is worth the read.
The writer is pro China and anti American and believes the biggest existential threats to the human race are Donald Trump and Climate change.

Awful. Chinese propaganda dressed up as academic prose.
This books is so one-sided it’s not funny.
The book is full of Chinese words and the narrator clearly speaks no Mandarin. He butchers every single pronunciation of Chinese term. Cringe-worthy...

Definitely slanted towards the CCP.
The author closes his eyes to the sins of the CCP and takes out a magnifying glass to find every American fault. I can only conclude he is reliant on continued access to China and doesn't want to tick off the censors and officials of the CCP. There is of course a worse possibility - that he actually believes this propaganda.
