Summary: The recent economic rise of China and India has attracted a great deal of attention and justifiably so. Together, the two countries account for one-fifth of the global economy and are projected to represent a full third of the world�s income by 2025. Yet, many of the views regarding China and India�s market reforms and high growth have been tendentious, exaggerated, or oversimplified. Awakening Giants, Feet of Clay scrutinizes the phenomenal rise of both nations, and demolishes the myths that have accumulated around the economic achievements of these two giants in the last quarter century. Exploring the challenges that both countries must overcome to become true leaders in the international economy, Pranab Bardhan looks beyond short-run macroeconomic issues to examine and compare China and India�s major policy changes, political and economic structures, and current general performance.
