Reviews: 

'This is the third substantial work by Yuwa Wei on Chinese company law. Her
earlier works dealt with joint ventures and comparative corporate governance and
were well received. The present work deals with securities regulation and the
market for corporate control and, like its predecessors, is scholarly and
lucidly written.'
