Jagannath P. Panda’s India–China Relations: Politics of Resources, Identity and Authority in a Multipolar World Order is a welcome addition among the plethora of scholarship available on India–China relations, by bringing analysis of the bilateral relationship into the second decade of the 21st century. After a brief analysis of the ‘traditional’ areas of interaction in the Sino-Indian relationship—the boundary dispute, Tibet question, and water disputes—the author discusses the ‘spill-over’ effects of the bilateral relationship at the sub-regional, regional, cross-continental and global levels.
