Brahma Chellaney. Water: Asia’s New Battleground (Georgetown University Press, 2011).

Water: Asia’s New Battleground is a pioneering study of Asia’s murky water politics and relationships among freshwater, peace, and security. In this unique and highly readable book, Brahma Chellaney expertly paints a larger picture of water across Asia, highlights the security implications of resource-linked territorial disputes, and proposes real strategies to avoid conflict and more equitably share Asia’s water resources.”
