China's Rising Sea Power

Reviews / Votes

'This strategic analysis work focuses on China's naval force structure, and most ably explores and examines difficult questions such as: What does China intend to do with its growing capability in submarine forces? And, how might the strategic stability in the Asian theatre change in the coming years?' - The Northern Mariner

'A solid piece of work for anyone interested in developing a better understanding of East Asian strategic development' - The Northern Mariner

'Does Beijing see itself as a regional maritime power? Is the PLA Navy positioned to take on the USN in the contested waters surrounding Taiwan? Dr Howarth examines such issues in some depth...[and]I was able to develop some interesting perspectives on this important global maritime common arena. I unconditionally recommend this book to all students and scholars with an interest in security and strategic studies, Asian politics, geo-politics and naval strategy.' - The Northern Mariner 'Does Beijing see itself as a regional maritime power?
