| Summary, etc | In a probing biography of her native land, Ayesha Jalal provides a unique insider's assessment of how the nuclear-armed Muslim nation of Pakistan evolved into a country besieged by military domination and militant religious extremism, and explains why its dilemmas weigh so heavily on prospects for peace in the region. This book provides an insiders assessment of how Pakistan, a nuclear-armed Muslim nation, evolved as it did and explains why its dilemmas weigh so heavily on prospects for peace in the region. Attentive to Pakistans external relations as well as its internal dynamics, the book shows how the vexed relationship with the United States, border disputes with Afghanistan in the west, and the conflict with India over Kashmir in the east have played into the hands of the generals who purchased security at the cost of strong democratic institutions. |
