Dr. Monika Chansoria is a Senior Fellow, heading the China programme at the Centre for Land Warfare Studies in New Delhi, and a columnist on foreign policy and strategic affairs.
Monika Chansoria's book on the Senkaku Islands is a long-awaited
work of excellence. Through her meticulous and objective
examination of the Japanese and Chinese arguments, she marvellously
sheds a revealing light on the true nature of the issue. As the
maritime security of the Indo-Pacific faces formidable challenges,
this book provides great lessons and deep insights. It, indeed, is
a must read.

Dr. Chansoria's most timely book analyses, with rare perspicacity,
the rival Sino-Japanese claims over the Senkaku Islands, which
intersect directly with the broader US presence as an established
Pacific power and a de jure Japanese ally. In so doing, she
methodically charts an insightfully analytical path into possible
future scenarios of China's increasing assertiveness in the East
China Sea from a strategic expert's vantage point.
