It is not only the Pakistanis who are concerned about the rapid growth of the Indian Navy. The Asian "Arms Race" is currently afflicting many of India's near and more distant neighbours.
While much of the response to India's – and China's – naval build-up has been ill-considered to the point of silliness, it has certainly been beneficial to the global "military/industrial" complex.
This collection of nine carefully considered essays by a good mix of academics and senior naval officers looks at the rationale and the reality of India's naval expansion. Needless to say, nine good brains tend to come to a number of different conclusions. All, however, are worth considering given the fast growing importance of their subject matter.
Very valuable food for thought.
