Based on the experiences of Chinese reforms, the book criticises the transition theories of the 'big-bang' and privatisation represented by Sachs and Kornai. Along with the adjustment of the industrial structure, the Chinese government decontrolled prices gradually. Meanwhile, the state-owned enterprise reform in China is leading to enhance managerial autonomy rather than privatisation. China has combined the 'gradual approach' of transition with the gradual process of economic development. The combination of transition and development gave China a chance to try something new.

SEEDS OF HOPE takes us from England to Goodall's home-away-from-home in Africa, deep inside the Gombe forest, where she and the chimpanzees are enchanted by the fig and plum trees they encounter. She introduces us to botanists around the world, as well as places where hope for plants can be found, such as The Millennium Seed Bank, where one billion seeds are preserved. She shows us the secret world of plants with all their mysteries and potential for healing our bodies as well as Planet Earth.Looking at the world as an adventurer, scientist, and devotee of sustainable foods and gardening-and setting forth simple goals we can all take to protect the plants around us-Jane Goodall delivers an enlightening story of the wonders we can find in our own backyards.
