Product Description

From India to the Info-Pacific, a riveting insider’s account of diplomacy and politics, and Australia’s position in the world. Lachlan Strahan spent his career as a diplomat and an ambassador in some of Australia’s most important postings, including India, Germany, Korea and Solomon Islands. He was involved in some of Australia’s biggest diplomatic challenges, from the spate of violence against Indian students in Australia to weapons discussions to Australia’s interests at the United Nations. Working with prime ministers and foreign affairs ministers including Kevin Rudd, Tony Abbott, Malcolm Turnbull, Gareth Evans, Alexander Downer, Marise Payne and Penny Wong, Strahan had a unique insight into Australia’s foreign policy in the Indo-Pacific and beyond for more than three decades. In this lively account, Strahan reveals how Canberra sees Australia and how our allies and adversaries see us, and offers a valuable perspective on what Australia can do to supercharge our relationships in the Indo-Pacific.
