What happens in the Indian Ocean will define Indias strategic future, and that in turn will do a great deal to set Asias course in the Asian Century. David Brewster gives us a perfect guide to the forces shaping Indias role in the Ocean that bears its name. It is a lucid, lively, comprehensive and judicious account of one of the central strategic questions of our times.

Professor Hugh White, Australian National University

A knowledgeable India hand, David Brewster explores Indias maritime ambitions and provides an incisive assessment of its potential to wield influence across the Indian Ocean region. Amidst current speculation about turbulent regional geopolitics, this Antipodean study illuminates a zone of uncertainty and holds a mirror to Indians, laypersons and strategic thinkers alike.

Admiral Arun Prakash (Retd), Chief of Naval Staff, Indian Navy 200406

It is fashionable for strategic analysts to claim to understand Indias growing role and the increasing centrality of the Indian Ocean as a zone of geopolitical competition. It is also easy to assert that Indias domestic problems and troubled neighbourhood will forever hobble its maritime ambitions. In this book, David Brewster offers a convincing and carefully-researched alternativeoutlining a realistic trajectory for India as an Indian Ocean power. In so doing he explains the power relationships and the subregional dynamics that will determine how smooth or otherwise this course will be. This book fills an important gap for scholars and policymakers striving to understand how India will affect the Indo-Pacific strategic order in the 21st century.

Rory Medcalf, Director, International Security Program, Lowy Institute, Australia

This is an excellent contribution to understanding the power dynamics in the Indian Ocean, the bridge between Europe and Asia. It brings out the centrality of this ocean regionthe new global centre of trade and energy flowsand the key role India will play in influencing the regional order.
