This 1,230-page tome is a must-have encyclopedia for any person or organization planning to interact with the biopharmaceutical market in China. It contains 23 well-written chapters and five appendices written by individuals who are experts in the areas they address.

Many chapters were translated from Chinese and this is the first time that their information has been provided to the West.
