As the Kashmir dispute brings India and Pakistan ominously close to nuclear war this book provides a compelling account of the history and politics of these two great South Asian rivals. Like the Israel-Palestine struggle, the Indian-Pakistan rivalry is a legacy of history. The two countries went to war within months of becoming independent and, over the following half-century, they have fought three other wars and clashed at the United Nations and every other global forum. It is a complex conflict, over religion and territory with two diametrically opposed views of nationhood and national ima

In recent years Pakistan has emerged as a strategic player on the world stage—both as a potential rogue state armed with nuclear weapons and as an American ally in the war against terrorism. But our understanding of this country is superficial. To probe beyond the headlines, Stephen Cohen, author of the prize-winning India: Emerging Power, offers a panoramic portrait of this complex country—from its origins as a homeland for Indian Muslims to a military-dominated state that has experienced uneven economic growth, political chaos, sectarian violence, and several nuclear crises with its much l

MISSION: PAKISTAN is not just another spy thriller. Written by someone with over three decades of experience in counter-intelligence and counter-terrorism, it offers unprecedented insights into this shadowy world as it relates to the Indian subcontinent. At the same time, it is the story of tender and cruel social and geopolitical values that have been woven around the life and times of an Indian intelligence agent. Based loosely on real historical events and people, Mission: Pakistan takes the reader back to the tumultuous decade from the mid sixties to the early seventies, when India and Pak
