Features: This book critically questions the main academic viewpoints of the renowned economists Wu Jinglian, Li Yining, Xiao Zhuoji, Mao Yushi, Lin Yifu, Zhang Weiying, Fan Gang, Wen Tiějūn, Hu Angang, and Zhang Wuchang. It specifically points out the theoretical one-sidedness, inclinations, and intellectual errors of these ten famous economists, using an alternative approach—a "critical book"—to facilitate a dialogue between new scholars and veteran authorities. It provides a close-up observation of the academic merits and shortcomings of today's prominent figures in Chinese economics. The book is sharp in language, persuasive in logic, not only avoids conforming to popular opinions but also dares to express unconventional ideas, introduces doubt where there seems none, and showcases highly vivid personal insights. Anyone who is interested in resolving China's economic issues, following the debates in Chinese economics, tracking the direction of China's economic policies, or observing the prospects of China's economic development should read this book.
