Biography
Christian Le Mière is a senior fellow for naval forces and maritime security at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, London.
'...useful for the growing number of scholars interested in the Asia-Pacific security, specifically maritime security, and should be required reading for the practitioners and journalists that seek to generate nuanced analysis of events as they unfold in this most maritime of centuries.' - E-IR journal
Maritime Diplomacy in the 21st Century contains excellent factual material based on an especially rich bibliography. Consequently, the book is a valuable contribution to the academic literature on the subject.
Though obviously aimed at those dealing with the theory and history of naval warfare, strategy, diplomacy, and international relations, there is no reason why others seeking to learn about maritime affairs, particularly modern naval forces, should not add it to their reading list as well. - Andrzej Makowski, Polish Naval Academy.
