An urgent exploration of the earth-tilting emergence of India and China on the world stage, The Elephant and the Dragon is the essential guide to understanding how India and China are reshaping our world. A tidal wave of change is headed for American shores as we enter an era defined by labor unbound from geographic borders and startling shifts in how ¡Vand where¡Xnearly everything we buy is made. Although ominous for the west, the transformation has already lifted hundreds of millions of Indians and Chinese out of abject poverty. In a compelling mix of analysis and on-the-ground reporting, veteran journalist Robyn Meredith cuts through the alarmist hype surrounding globalization, offshoring, and layoffs, untangling the complex web of business, politics, and culture that entwines India, China, and the west.
