Peake, Amber (7 August 2020). "Miriam Margolyes married: Is Miriam Margolyes married?". Express.co.uk . Retrieved 5 November 2021. In Seaways and Gatekeepers, trade provides the integrating framework for local and regional histories that cover more than 300 years, from the late 16th century to the beginning of the 20th, when new technologies and changing markets signaled Western dominance. The introduction considers theories from the social sciences and economics which can help liberate writers from dependence on states as narrative frameworks. Southeast Asian specialists can learn from this book, which ignores conventional geographic and temporal boundaries. It will also appeal to those working on wider themes such as global history, state formation, the evolution of markets and anthropology. Sutherland, Heather (1995).

Seaways and Gatekeepers

This combination of ambition and caution led the author to divide the book into two sections. The first, Foundations, traces the geographic, economic and political patterns which constituted a deeply rooted sub-stratum knitting this extensive region together. These synchronic chapters provide the basis for the cautious part two, Glimpsed Histories. The author seemed to tread carefully here. Although she emphasizes the trading ties and political alliances that connected diverse regions into shifting clusters, the author tries to give politically unincorporated societies their due share of attention. Trade rather than the state is the central motif. The resulting story is one of adaptation, opportunities grasped and lost, and of tenuous but very resilient webs within wider systems. But it is all very incomplete: local perspectives are extremely rare. Rather than forcibly merging these Glimpsed Histories into one explicit theme the author has deliberately chosen to leave the fragments where they lie. The results may be jagged, but a little uncertainty is preferable to a misleading homogenisation which could preclude promising avenues of enquiry. About the authors".
