Informationen zum Autor Pin Ho , a journalist and writer, is the founder of Mirror Media Groups and has covered Chinese politics for twenty-five years. He broke the news on leadership lineups for three consecutive Communist Party Congresses since 2002. His book, China's Princelings , was the first to coin that phrase to describe the children of Chinese revolutionaries, and is the source for much that has appeared in the accounts of various Western journalists. Wenguang Huang is a writer, journalist, and translator whose articles and translations have been published in the New York Times , the Chicago Tribune , the Paris Review , and the Christian Science Monitor . He is most recently the author of the memoir The Little Red Guard and the translator for Liao Yiwu's For a Song and One Hundred Songs, The Corpse Walker , and God Is Red .

Bo's wife--is only the start. Two uniquely well-informed informed Chinese journalists tell the sordid story behind the downfall of Politburo member Bo Xilai to illuminate its greater significance as a potentially destabilizing turning point in a cataclysmic internal power struggle between factions of the Communist Party Zusammenfassung Two uniquely well-informed informed Chinese journalists tell the sordid story behind the downfall of Politburo member Bo Xilai to illuminate its greater significance as a potentially destabilizing turning point in a cataclysmic internal power struggle between factions of the Communist Party
