520 $a"Based on the author's own research and investigations into more than 25 port cities in China over the past 18 years, this book provides vivid stories about China and challenges existing theories on port development. This book answers the following questions from a geographical perspective: how has port growth been speeded up and realized under strong state control and intervention? How have ports and their cities affected each other? What lessons can China's port-cities learn from other countries, regions and cities? and what will be the next stage of port-city interplays in China in this globalizing era?"--Provided by publisher.
