Regardless of whether the reader is Christopher Hitchens or Richard Nixon, Secretary Kissinger's book "On China," provides fascinating insights and a valuable education on the country.

Whether you agree with everything Kissinger says in the book or not, this book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in knowing more about China and the US-China relationship.

Kissinger's perspective and analysis of 40 years of US - China relations are brilliant. Whatever your political perspective, this often first hand account of the key events that have shaped this relationship is candid and educational. A must read.

So far I have enjoyed this book, but it seems to crash my iPad iBooks app. Hopefully Apple will fix this.
