But, for Kissinger’s purposes in this essay, that is not a matter worth considering. Typical of Kissinger writings related to historical events, he frames all actors in such a way as to explain their behavior, rather than to microscopically examine their motives or personalities....with the practical effect, the reader is allowed to concentrate on events, instead of becoming embroiled in particulars related to individuals..........All people have particulars, about which, volumes of speculative writings could be generated; HAK penetrates and emphasizes the traits understandable to virtually every person.
The author try to help us to understand more about China’s political philosophy. In his book 'On China', Kissinger presents his own understanding of China and demonstrates the importance of this country's cultural framework when it comes to its leadership and foreign policy. The aim of this first chapter is to familiarize the reader with China's Confucian culture, its approach to Diplomacy and its conception of the Art of War. Partly that is because the somewhat self-deprecatory title conceals what is, in fact, an ambitious goal: to make sense of China’s diplomacy and foreign policies across two and a half millennia, and to bring China’s past full circle in order to illuminate the present. Incredibly most of us in the Western world know next to nothing about China. The book is of immense value to anyone with even a passing interest in US, China relations. he does not go into detail regarding personalities and character traits, he does provide adequate information concerning their thoughts and statements related to his, HAK's, experience with them.

Deng Xioping was practical, down-to-earth, and direct, and so on -- the former Secretary of State is at pains to be objective and to give everyone his due.
I found the book a fascinating account of Chinese history and philosophy and how Chinese traditions that have matured over millennium impacted the thoughts, strategies and actions of Mao and the post Mao decades. When he dispatched Kissinger to Beijing to prepare for Nixon’s upcoming visit, he cautioned him about the need to avoid making preemptive concessions to China. Kissinger may be an old cold warrior, and some will never forgive him for his involvement with the Vietnam war and the bombing of Cambodia, but his analyses are always insightful, and it is fascinating to follow his mind at work.
