Out of the Gobi

Publisher: Wiley

Out of the Gobi: My Story of China and America is a 2019 non-fiction autobiographical book by Weijian Shan.

It was published in January of that year. John Pomfret of The Washington Post wrote that due to internal factors, there had "not been a single credible memoir by a Chinese insider who played at the nexus of the nation’s business and political elites."[1]

Janet Yellen wrote the introduction of the book; she was a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, who advised Shan on his work.[2]
