Sample Book Insights:

#1 East Asia is a vast, yawning expanse that stretches from Arctic to Antarctic regions. The sea, unlike land, creates clearly defined borders, which reduces conflict.

#2 The seas in East Asia have not prevented military conflicts in the past, and they are unlikely to do so in the future. The geography of East Asia will foster the growth of navies, which while a worrisome trend in itself, is not as worrisome as the growth of armies in continental Europe at the beginning of the last century.

#3 East Asia can be divided into two general areas: Northeast Asia, which is dominated by the Korean Peninsula, and Southeast Asia, which is dominated by the South China Sea. The destiny of North Korea, a totalitarian and hermitic state, is closely tied to the area.

#4 The South China Sea is the throat of the Western Pacific and Indian oceans, and it is here where China’s 1. 3 billion people and the Indian Subcontinent’s 1. 5 billion people converge.
