This is a timely, comprehensive and highly readable introduction to security in the Asia Pacific region. It will serve as an invaluable tool for teaching, research and policy debates on the challenges facing the region and how to address them. -- Amitav Acharya, Distinguished Professor of International Relations, American University, Washington DC, School of International Service, American University This text is distinguished by the integration of international relations theory into the study of substantive security issues in the Asia-Pacific. The individual chapters are empirically authoritative and speak to a comprehensive range of 'traditional' and 'new' security concerns. There is no other textbook with this value-added and it fills an important gap for students and researchers alike. -- Christopher W. Hughes, Professor of International Politics and Japanese Studies, Chair of the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Warwick This is an excellent text book on Asia-Pacific security, combining theoretical and policy dimensions of the subject matter. The rich essays in it add to our understanding of the subject and scholars and practitioners alike will find them useful. -- T.V. Paul, James McGill Professor of International Relations, McGill University, Canada, Editor of: Accommodating Rising Powers: Past: Present and Future , 2016.,
