description: Rein in at the Brink of the American Policy Toward Taiwan and US-PRC Relations draws extensively on the US-PRC negotiating record to assess the issues and dynamics at play on the Taiwan question. While Beijing and Taipei are ultimately responsible for their future relationship, the book argues that American leaders, inattentive to the history and the nuances of normalization, have generated unintended crises – and could do so again. Written by Stimson senior associate and East Asia program director Alan D. Romberg, this study has been hailed as "the definitive work on the evolution of the Taiwan question."
