Asymmetric Warfare in South Asia

The 1999 Kargil conflict between India and Pakistan was a landmark event not because of its duration or casualties, but because it contained a real risk of nuclear escalation. This unique analysis includes unprecedented access to Indian, Pakistani, and U.S. government officials and military officers actively involved in the conflict.

The Muslims Are Coming!

Islamophobia, Extremism, and the Domestic War on Terror

The G20 Macroeconomic Agenda

Arun Kundnani

India and the Emerging Economies

The new front in the War on Terror is the ‘homegrown enemy’, domestic terrorists who have become the focus of sprawling counterterrorism structures of policing and surveillance in the United States and across Europe. Domestic surveillance has mushroomed – at least 100,000 Muslims in America have been secretly under scrutiny. British police compiled a secret suspect list of more than 8,000 alQaeda ‘sympathizers’, and in another operation included almost 300 children fifteen and under among the potential extremists investigated.

Based on several years of research and reportage, in locations as disparate as Texas, New York, and Yorkshire, and written in engrossing, precise prose, this is the first comprehensive critique of counterradicalization strategies. The new policy and policing campaigns have been backed by an industry of freshly minted experts and liberal commentators. This book looks at the way these debates have been transformed by the embrace of a narrowly configured and illconceived anti-extremism.

Globalization, Development and Security in Asia Volume 1: Foreign Policy and Security in an Asian Century: Threats, Strategies and Policy Choices Volume 2: Trade, Investment and Economic Integration Volume 3: The Political Economy of Energy Volume 4: Environment and Sustainable Development in Asia Zhiqun Zhu; Benny Cheng Guan The, Sarah Y. Tong, Jie Li, Chi-Jen Yang & Jieli Li (Eds.) Asian countries are undergoing rapid political, economic and social transformations; meanwhile, there is a growing demand for knowing more about Asia. This Major Reference Set is designed to help general readers as well as specialists to have a good grasp of the latest developments in Asia in the key areas of economic growth, trade, energy, environment, foreign policy and security.

With 4 volumes, this set covers all major dimensions of Asia's political economy. Contributors include both scholars and practitioners who provide first-hand description and analysis of fundamental issues in Asia.

Peace and political stability are of ultimate importance, with Asia at the forefront of wealth creation in the global economy.

Volume 1 unpacks and examines the foreign policy strategies of key states and the role of regional institutions in responding to the security demands of an Asian century.

Volume 2 studies the strong economic integration through trade and cross-border investment that has been essential to Asia. The region's future prosperity depends on it being able to remain open and outwardlooking. As Asia grows larger and richer, more concerted efforts are required to surmount regional rivalry and to further strengthen the regional architecture of economic cooperation.

Volume 3 looks at the emerging economies' thirst for energy that creates huge competition, around which domestic, regional, and international political economy

Life sciences Handbook of Biomimetics and Bioinspiration Biologically-Driven Engineering of Materials, Processes, Devices, and Systems Esmaiel Jabbari, Deok-Ho Kim, Luke P. Lee, Amir Ghaemmaghami & Ali Khademhosseini (Eds.) Global warming, pollution, food and water shortage, cyberspace insecurity, over-population, land erosion, and an overburdened health care system are major issues facing the human race and our planet. These challenges have presented a mandate to develop “natural” or “green” technologies using nature and the living system as a guide to rationally design processes, devices, and systems. This approach has given rise to a new paradigm, one in which innovation goes handin-hand with less waste, less pollution, and less invasiveness to life on earth. Bioinspiration has also led to the development of technologies that mimic the hierarchical complexity of biological systems, leading to novel highly efficient, more reliable multifunctional materials, devices, and systems that can perform multiple tasks at one time. This multi-volume handbook focuses on the application of biomimetics and bioinspiration in medicine and engineering to produce miniaturized multi-functional materials, devices, and systems to perform complex tasks. Our understanding of complex biological systems at different length scales has increased dramatically as our ability to observe nature has expanded from macro to molecular scale, leading to the rational biologically-driven design to find solution to technological problems in medicine and engineering.

The following three-volume set covers the fields of bioinspired materials, electromechanical systems developed from concepts inspired by nature, and tissue models respectively.

The first volume focuses on the rational design of nano- and micro-structured hierarchical materials inspired by the relevant characteristics in living systems, such as the self-cleaning ability of lotus leaves and cicadas' wings.

The second volume presents nature-oriented studies and developments in the field of electromechanical devices and systems.

The third volume features engineered models of biological tissues.

This three-volume set is a must-have for anyone keento understand the complexity of biological systems andhow that complexity can be mimicked to engineernovel materials, devices and systems to solve pressingtechnological challenges of the twenty-first century.
