Chinese President Xi Jinping's book on governance is making waves in America. At the BooxExpo America, the book detailing the Chinese president's most noteworthy works for the past two years is being promoted to Americans.

"Xi Jinping: The Governance of China" is currently being reviewed by renowned people in America. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg even had an English copy on his desk and bought more copies for his colleagues.

Now being shown and promoted at the BookExpo America, held at New York City's Javits Center, American journalists, publishers, diplomats and businessmen all have good things to say about the book, since it talks about all of the laudable achievements of President Xi.

The book debuted internationally at the Frankfurt Book Fair held on Oct. 8, 2014, and since then, it has received wide acclaim.

Book Expo America 2015's event director claimed that to be promoting the book and taking part on its discussion is a "great honor." A symposium was specifically prepared for the book, which lasted for an hour.

The event attracted around 100 participants, including Chinese Ambassador to the United States Ciu Tiankai as well as the Chairman of Kuhn Foundation, Robert Lawrence Kuhn. Kuhn has been hailed as an expert in China residing in the Western world.

Even the former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger is aware of the book. Two days before the book entered the American book market, he offered a congratulatory message and even expressed his gratitude that the organizers of the Expo decided to bring the book into the country.

Kissinger described the book as "an eloquent, thoughtful window into a leader, a country, and a millennia-old civilization."
