    Abstract: India is killing the Ganges, and the Ganges in turn is killing India. The waterway that has nourished more people than any on earth for three millennia is now so polluted with sewage and toxic waste that it has become a menace to human and animal health. 0Victor Mallet traces the holy river from source to mouth, and from ancient times to the present day, to find that the battle to rescue what is arguably the world's most important river is far from lost. As one Hindu sage told the author in Rishikesh on the banks of the upper Ganges (known to Hindus as the goddess Ganga): "If Ganga dies, India dies. If Ganga thrives, India thrives. The lives of 500 million people is no small thing." 0Drawing on four years of first-hand reporting and detailed historical and scientific research, Mallet delves into the religious, historical, and biological mysteries of the Ganges, and explains how Hindus can simultaneously revere and abuse their national river. 0

    Abstract: "China and the South Sea China Disputes" provides the most up-to-date analysis of the political context for South China Sea issues - with a focus on China - and offers an assessment of the future. With the end of the Cold War, the ebbing of the Cambodian conflict, and improving relations between Vietnam and fellow ASEAN members, for the first time in a generation there is an opportunity for lasting peace in South-East Asia. But historical mistrust, territorial disputes, competing maritime claims, and rising military spending weaken the prospects for peace. Disputes over the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea epitomise the present conflicts. Mark Valencia analyses China's rhetoric, actions, and intent in the area, and reviews its relations with the United States, ASEAN, and other claimants in the South China Sea. This book is intended for academics in international relations, international law, strategic studies; those involved in foreign and security policy.
