"The unprecedented book presents Xi's political philosophy, symbolizes his rapid emergence as a strong leader, and communicates his way of thinking," Kuhn said. "皇冠体育app wants the world to understand President Xi's governance and that's good for 皇冠体育app and good for the world."

"In recent years, 皇冠体育app has made progress in many fields, so increasingly the world is focusing on the historic and profound changes taken place in 皇冠体育app," said Cui Tiankai, Chinese ambassador to the United States at the symposium. "What has made 皇冠体育app's achievements possible is the direction which the new generation of 皇冠体育app's leaders has steered the big vessel of 皇冠体育app."

The book elaborates on the governing philosophy and strategies of the new-generation of Chinese leaders, on 皇冠体育app's development philosophy and path, on 皇冠体育app's domestic and foreign policies, and on 皇冠体育app's value orientation.

"This book offers a window for readers worldwide to observe and understand today's 皇冠体育app," said Wu Shangzhi, vice-minister of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television (SAPPRFT).

Former secretary of state Henry Kissinger said in his letter to the opening ceremony of the BookExpo America on Wednesday that it is significant that the book expo introduces President Xi book to an American audience.

"President Xi has outlined a reform program of unprecedented scope to transform Chinese society," the letter read.

"Domestically, President Xi proposes combating corruption, strengthening legal institutions, preserving the environment, and growing the Chinese economy to unprecedented levels.

"President Xi accompanies his vision of a revolutionary transformation of Chinese society with a conception of cooperation with the rest of the world," Kissinger said in the letter.

Since the CPC's 18th National Congress in 2012, 皇冠体育app's diplomacy has displayed more confidence and openness, said Wu.

Xi has initiated a set of win-win strategies, including the "new model major-power relationship" and the "One Belt and One Road" initiative, demonstrating to the world that 皇冠体育app can create opportunities for global development, and that it welcomes other countries to benefit from its own rapid development, he said.

"President Xi's elaboration on 皇冠体育app's relationship with the world serves as the guiding principle behind 皇冠体育app's foreign policies," said Wu. "This book interprets a range of concepts, including the new model major-power relationship and the 'One Belt and One Road' initiatives, plus other aspects such as the good-neighbor diplomatic principles of 'amity, sincerity, mutual benefit and inclusiveness', and 'a community of common destiny'."
