Publisher's Synopsis

This study aims to undermine the standard view of Lin Biao as a ruthless, ambitious politician. Drawing on new Chinese sources, it reveals a picture of Lin with implications for an understanding of the Cultural Revolution and Chinese politics as a whole. Teiwes and Sun refute both the official verdict on Lin Biao and prevailing Western interpretations. The text is supplemented by a 30-page "critical chronology" of Lin's career.
