Interest in China's scientific and technological capabilities has grown in recent years, alongside with the awareness that globalization is changing the dynamics of research and innovation. China's ability to create and apply new knowledge has a direct bearing on assessments of how China will transform the future and what kind of international player China will become politically, economically and militarily. This book will provide an overview of China's research efforts including an overview of four specific fields: the IT sector, nanotechnology, the energy sector, with an emphasis on the research Chinese specialists have done in the sphere of clean coal, and bio technology.
