Reviews

... a great richness of approaches and experiences, especially where so many of the authors have extensive on-the-ground experience of their respective topics. -- Richard Robison, Asia Research Centre, Murdoch University * Journal of Contemporary Asia * Relationships just bob around, almost directionless. The ocean is currently calm. That's temporary. More understanding, port and starboard, is needed to weather the inevitable storms. This book provides some ballast. -- Duncan Graham * The Jakarta Post * This book soberly makes the case for closer Indonesia-Australia ties, and offers constructive ideas for how they might be achieved. -- David Fettling * Australian Book Review * Strangers Next Door? is an indispensable contribution to the study of Indonesia-Australia relations and Asian studies in general. -- Evan Laksmana * Contemporary Southeast Asia * Strangers Next Door? Indonesia and Australia in the Asian Century is the most comprehensive scholarly analysis of the Australia-Indonesia relationship this century... This book will be required reading for any diplomat, journalist, academic, student or interested reader of the Australia-Indonesia relationship. Prominent scholars and well-known commentators on the relationship over the past four decades provide meaningful contributions in their respective fields. As such, this a formidable anthology that will be widely cited. -- Ross Tapsell, Australian National University * Asian Studies Review * [T]his is a highly competent and lucid addition to the field, one that sets a new benchmark. -- David Reeve, University of New South Wales, Sydney * South East Asia Research * [A]n invaluable contribution to the literature on the relationship between Indonesia and Australia.
