Examining both private and state enterprises, Schlevogt (Schlevogt business School, Germany) presents the results of a large-scale quantitative survey of 124 Chinese managers. He describes Chinese management styles in the private organizations as being a combination of traditional family-based cultural values and the readoption of the business practices of the overseas Chinese diaspora. The statistical generalizations are supported by a selection of more qualitative case studies. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Incorporated, Portland, OR (booknews.com).
