"The rivalry between China and India has entered a new phase with the two Asian powers struggling to manage their relationship. From South Asia and the Indian Ocean region to the far reaches of the Pacific, the Sino-Indian rivalry is getting manifested in myriad ways in the wider context of economic globalisation. This remarkable collection of essays, superbly edited by Prof T.V. Paul, manages to explore the contestations and contradictions in Sino-Indian ties by bringing impressive analytical heft to the discourse on major power rivalry." — Harsh Pant, professor, King's College London

"Despite being one of the few indigenous great power rivalries in Asia, the competition between China and India has never received the attention it deserves. T. V. Paul's The China-India Rivalry in the Globalization Era corrects this lacuna in ways that advance both scholarship and policy making. It is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the complex interactions between these rising giants today." — Ashley J. Tellis, Tata Chair for Strategic Affairs, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
