Review "Newport Manual on Arctic Security is undoubtedly one of the most useful books ever written on Arctic security. This is essential reading for naval professionals around the world seeking to better understand how to apply and integrate seapower in the complex Arctic region. With emerging strategic competition in this global maritime crossroads, it is imperative that we are prepared for operations in the High North." —Adm. James G. Foggo III (Ret.), commander, United States Naval Forces Europe-Africa; commander, Allied Joint Force Command Naples United States "As the likelihood of accidental conflict and miscalculation in the Arctic increases, the adoption of new practical measures to increase security dialogue and confidence between States becomes urgent. The principles set forth in this Manual are an important contribution to the ongoing discussion and are worth considering by the governments concerned." —Dr. Andrei Zagorski, head of Department for Disarmament and Conflict Resolution Studies, Primakov National Research Institute of World Economy and International Relations (IMEMO), Russian Academy of Sciences; Member, Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC) "This important book moves beyond just articulating concepts and challenges, and proposes innovative and practical implementation measures to bolster regional security dialogue, stability, and cooperation.
