《上海2020(西方学者观照中的上海与中国)》一书中，凯利·布朗通过采访上海市政府相关负责人、专家学者、经济界精英及在上海工作、生活多年的西方学者等，分析上海当前着力打造“四个中心”的基础与可行性。作者还结合上海自贸区建设，探讨上海的未来发展。

《上海2020(西方学者观照中的上海与中国)》中，他力求展示上海当地官员、商人和市民眼中的上海，“描绘上海人性的一面，揭示上海对中国各地发展的代表性意义，这比论述上海的发展规模和速度更为重要。”

《上海2020(西方学者观照中的上海与中国)(英文版)》简介：This is a book about one of the most dynamic, fastest growing cities on earth. It is about a city in a country which is engaging with modernity in ways which have utterly reshaped its economy and society since the start of the reform and opening up process more than three decades ago in 1978. It is about how a place is returning to its historic role as a great crossing point, a window from the world onto China and China onto the world. It is about somewhere where the East meets West, but where the East also meets itself. This is finally the personal story of engagement with the great ambitions of this city, albeit for only a tiny moment of this great story as it unfolds.

Shanghai has one of the best healthcare systems, some of the best universities, some of the most innovative companies, and an economy that is quickly moving towards service industry rather than manufacturing. Those who come to the Bund to gaze over the modern skyline of the city often feel like they are looking not just at the present, but at the future, and at what the rest of the country wishes to become in a few years.

Shanghai's attraction also lies in the fact that it embodies the atmosphere and spirit of China in experimenting with reform. And in this sense, it carries a meaning which resonates with both Chinese and foreigners. The launch of the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone in September 2013, in particular, holds great prospects for everyone.
