In this book he writes about the big picture topics that are dominating order and power in the Asian region and with his extensive knowledge casts comparisons and observations that are insightful and refreshing. ... Asian Megatrends by Rajiv Biswas is an accessible resource for the international relations and economics student and scholar, the private sector executive and policy-maker alike."
