Reviews
“Knowing the Salween River is a welcome addition to the research on transboundary water conflicts, environmental politics, and Southeast Asia resource issues. … it is a clearly written and accessible book. For all of us, it is an important opportunity to educate ourselves about the challenges facing communities in the basin, and to learn about their efforts to create just and sustainable futures.” (Coleen Fox, Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, Vol. 41, 2020)
