The next Expanded Territories Reading Group will be held on Tuesday 12th of March at 18.00 in M330, Marylebone Campus, University of Westminster NW1 5LS.

Anthony Powis will introduce Sunil Amrith’s Unruly Waters.

Asia’s history has been shaped by her waters. In Unruly Waters, historian Sunil Amrith reimagines Asia’s history through the stories of its rains, rivers, coasts, and seas–and of the weather-watchers and engineers, mapmakers and farmers who have sought to control them.
