    "Apple is more than the world's greatest company. It is integral to the whole culture of globalization. Patrick McGee not only narrates the epic history of Apple, but explains how, in effect, it got taken over by China, the world's greatest illiberal power. To call this book a page-turner is almost to diminish its importance. It is a once-in-a-generation read." --Robert D. Kaplan, author of the New York Times bestseller The Revenge of Geography and the forthcoming Waste Land: A World in Permanent Crisis, and Robert Strausz-Hupé Chair in Geopolitics at the Foreign Policy Research Institute, "ABSOLUTELY RIVETING. An extraordinary story, expertly told--and one that has important implications for Apple, for tech, and for global geoeconomics." --Peter Frankopan, Professor of Global History at Oxford and bestselling author of Silk Roads, "A MASTERFUL AND DEEPLY REPORTED PORTRAYAL OF HOW APPLE GAINED CHINA AND LOST ITS SOUL." -- Isaac Stone Fish, author of America Second and CEO of Strategy Risks, "HUGELY IMPORTANT. Patrick McGee shows us how Apple's quest for wealth and power in China may in the end be the undoing both of the company and of America's quest for technology supremacy." --Rana Foroohar, CNN Global Economic Analyst and author of Makers and Takers : The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business, "Deeply researched, disturbing, and enlightening, Apple in China reveals how Apple enabled China's rise, seemingly at the cost of its own future. In these pages we watch as the world's most profitable company gets outmaneuvered by the world's most powerful dictator. Using an impressively broad palette, McGee paints a picture of Apple CEO Tim Cook resolutely trying to save costs by placing nearly all of the company's advanced manufacturing base in Beijing's grip, only to find it impossible to wriggle free." --Chris Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Chip War, "There is little doubt that Big Tech companies--like the world's richest and most influential one, Apple--wield as much power as many nation states. But what's less well known is how these companies are themselves manipulated by the Chinese state for its own economic and political ends. In this hugely important new book, Patrick McGee shows us how Apple's quest for wealth and power in China may in the end be the undoing both of the company and of America's quest for technology supremacy." --Rana Foroohar, Financial Times Global Business Columnist, CNN Global Economic Analyst, and author of Makers and Takers : The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business, "A TOUR-DE-FORCE ACCOUNT. Apple in China captures every twist and turn of the tech giant's off-kilter and decidedly off-script relationship with the authoritarian state. What will surprise many is how China ensnared a corporate titan by matching and then surpassing its knack for ruthless efficiency and global dominance." --Megan Murphy, former Editor in Chief of Bloomberg BusinessWeek, "DEEPLY RESEARCHED, DISTURBING, AND ENLIGHTENING. Apple in China reveals how Apple enabled China's rise, seemingly at the cost of its own future. In these pages we watch as the world's most profitable company gets outmaneuvered by the world's most powerful dictator." --Chris Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Chip War, "A MASTERPIECE OF INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM, REPLETE WITH REVELATIONS. Every iPhone owner will want to read this book, but no Apple employee will risk being seen with it. McGee shows how China played the long game, convincing Apple to invest on an unprecedented scale and, inadvertently, help build its grand authoritarian project. This book is a warning for anyone eager to do business in hostile countries." --Geoffrey Cain, author of Samsung Rising and The Perfect Police State, "Phenomenal...a jaw-dropping book." --Jon Stewart, The Daily Show "As Patrick McGee makes devastatingly clear in his smart and comprehensive Apple in China , the American company's decision under Tim Cook, the current C.E.O., to manufacture about 90 percent of its products in China has created an existential vulnerability not just for Apple, but for the United States--nurturing the conditions for Chinese technology to outpace American innovation....A persuasive expose." -- New York Times "Flips the usual narrative about Apple and China on its head... forcefully argues that Apple may be the single biggest supporter of President Xi's 'Made in China 2025' plan." -- Vanity Fair "An eye-opening exposé ... [which] chronicles a lucrative relationship stained by manipulation, violence and abuse." -- The Telegraph (UK) "Few people are better prepared to discuss the symbiotic relationship between Apple and China than Patrick McGee... as [McGee] argues, China would not be China without Apple." --Bari Weiss, Honestly "A riveting account of how Apple came to depend on Chinese suppliers for most of its products... [Apple's] history holds important lessons for the two economies--and for other big manufacturers like Tesla." -- Reuters Breakingviews "Timely... McGee excels at describing the intricacies of supply chains... explains how Apple became inseparable from China and what the fracturing of global trade means for one of the world's most valuable companies." -- The Economist "Remarkable... [breaks] the cone of silence." -- The Circuit "Incredibly timely... [McGee] has used [his] background to create a really comprehensive history telling a story that very few people truly understand." --Peter Kafka, Vox "Channels" "Explosive... People should be reading this book and understanding the narrative." --Chris Voss, The Chris Voss Show "An incredible story with profound implications for not just Apple but all of us who depend on China's manufacturing prowess and intricate supply networks to sustain our way of life." --Hidden Forces "Fascinating... The fundamental issue here [is] whether or not we want our biggest company--our most innovative company, perhaps the paradigmatic company for America--to be that deeply intertwined with China." --Hugh Hewitt "To call this book a page-turner is almost to diminish its importance. It is a once-in-a-generation read." --Robert D.

    Synopsis
    For readers of Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs and Chris Miller's Chip War , a riveting look at how Apple helped build China's dominance in electronics assembly and manufacturing only to find itself trapped in a relationship with an authoritarian state making ever-increasing demands. After struggling to build its products on three continents, Apple was lured by China's seemingly inexhaustible supply of cheap labor. Soon it was sending thousands of engineers across the Pacific, training millions of workers, and spending hundreds of billions of dollars to create the world's most sophisticated supply chain. These capabilities enabled Apple to build the 21st century's most iconic products--in staggering volume and for enormous profit. Without explicitly intending to, Apple built an advanced electronics industry within China, only to discover that its massive investments in technology upgrades had inadvertently given Beijing a power that could be weaponized. In Apple in China , journalist Patrick McGee draws on more than two hundred interviews with former executives and engineers, supplementing their stories with unreported meetings held by Steve Jobs, emails between top executives, and internal memos regarding threats from Chinese competition. The book highlights the unknown characters who were instrumental in Apple's ascent and who tried to forge a different path, including the Mormon missionary who established the Apple Store in China; the "Gang of Eight" executives tasked with placating Beijing; and an idealistic veteran whose hopes of improving the lives of factory workers were crushed by both Cupertino's operational demands and Xi Jinping's war on civil society. Apple in China is the sometimes disturbing and always revelatory story of how an outspoken, proud company that once praised "rebels" and "troublemakers"--the company that encouraged us all to "Think Different"--devolved into passively cooperating with a belligerent regime that increasingly controls its fate.
