| description | Nicholas Tarling is one of the foremost historians of the role of the British
in Southeast Asia during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Well
established in his feld of expertise specifcally focusing on British policy in
and towards Malaya / Malaysia, Indonesia, Siam / Thailand and Myanmar
(Burma), he has authored and edited close to 40 books including the two
volume The Cambridge History of Southeast Asia (Cambridge, 1992), and
more than 90 scholarly journal articles in an academic career spanning more
than half a century.
Nick, as he is affectionately known, is the quintessential scholar: a
consummate researcher and a prolifc writer. Poring through literally miles of
archival documents is but second nature to him; likewise putting pen to paper
for his fndings, analysis, interpretations, thoughts and opinions to churn out
manuscript after manuscript for publication. Apart from history, his forte, Nick
wrote on higher education and on the performing arts (music and theatre). |
