However, analysis of the underlying structures and mechanisms is hindered by the sheer flood of data, stringent government control of all media, and ambiguities inherent in translation from Chinese. This book overcomes these difficulties and provides a concise picture of biotechnology-related research and development in China. It begins with brief accounts of China's geography, people, political and administrational structure, economy, finance, infrastructure related to science and technology, and educational system. It presents succinct accounts on structures and developments in biomedicine, diagnostics, agriculture, fermented food, bioindustry, and environmental biotechnology, with reference to government, industry, and academia. Finally, it predicts the next steps in Chinese biotechnology for the national agenda and, in view of China's ambitious global development strategy, the Belt and Road Initiative. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rolf Schmid, Xin Xiong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9814877530\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789814877534\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jenny Stanford Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/16\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.90d","brand":"Rolf Schmid","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982890795263,"sku":"9789814877534","price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e1ce59b6-7243-44ac-b283-4eadbbcf3b4a.jpg?v=1683263533","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/biotech-in-china-rolf-schmid-9789814877534","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
