Bibliography
Jeff M. Smith is director of South Asia Programs and Kraemer Strategy Fellow at the American Foreign Policy Council.
Cold Peace takes us on a fascinating tour through the Himalayas to
the Indian Ocean and from Tibet to Pakistan to deconstruct the
complex layers of the Sino-Indian relationship. In describing the
rivalrous cooperation between China and India, Jeff M. Smith has
crafted the rare book that is valuable to the veteran policymaker
and accessible to the interested reader.
*Kurt Campbell, former Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian
and Pacific Affairs, Chairman and CEO of The Asia Group, LLC*
Smith’s analysis sheds new light on the complex dynamics
underpinning the turbulent China-India relationship. Part
history book, part policy tome, Cold Peace delivers.
*Richard Myers, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff*
Drawing upon numerous interviews, as well as other material, Jeff
M. Smith demonstrates why the interactions among India, Pakistan
and China, are, and will continue to be, of vital concern to the
U.S. policy makers for years to come.
*Dov Zakheim, former Under Secretary of Defense*
Cold Peace offers a comprehensive survey of the geostrategic
interaction between China and India. Smith looks into
little-studied arenas of rivalry such as the Andaman and Nicobar
Islands. Based on extensive interviews with Indian and Chinese
analysts, this book gives new insight into the views and policies
of both Beijing and New Delhi. A solid, insightful, first rate
work.
*John W. Garver, Georgia Institute of Technology; author of
Protracted Contest: Sino-Indian Rivalry in the Twentieth Century*
