Beginning with 1947, when "India and Pakistan were born to conflict," renowned India scholar Stanley Wolpert provides an authoritative, accessible overview of what is potentially the world's most dangerous crisis. He concisely distills sixy-three years of complex history, tracing the roots of the relationship between these two antagonists, explaining the many attempts to resolve their disputes, and assessing the dominant political leaders. In addition to providing a comprehensive perspective on the origin and nature of this conflict, Wolpert examines all the proposed solutions and concludes with a road map for a brighter future for South Asia.
