Patrick McGee examines how Apple’s manufacturing relationship with China became central to the company’s business and to wider economic competition.
The book follows the growth of that partnership and the dependencies it created, connecting corporate decisions with industrial capacity and political power.
It brings the China sequence into the business world, showing how the choices of a single influential company can illuminate larger questions about interdependence.
