Great Game East: India, China And The Struggle For Asia's Most Volatile FrontierThere was the 'Great Game', the complex political machinations of Victorian Britain and Tsarist Russia in the nineteenth century; and there was the 'New Great Game', the conflict between the Western powers and Russia and China over Central Asia's oil and natural resources. But there is another Great Game that's playing out in Asia - one that will significantly impact the course of global politics. In Great Game East, Bertil Lintner, acknowledged as one of the foremost experts on insurgencies in the region, unpacks the layers of complex political intrigues and spy networks that define the Great Game East. A must-read for anyone who wishes to understand the political future of a continent, or the world. |
