This book is an accessible, comprehensive, and nuanced history of
Pakistan. It reflects upon state and society in Pakistan and shows
they have been shaped by historical forces and personae. Hoodbhoy
expertly maps the journey of the region from many millennia ago to
the circumstances and impulses that gave birth to the very first
state in history founded upon religious identity. He documents
colonial rule, the trauma of Partition, the nation's wars with
India, the formation of Bangladesh, and the emergence of Baloch
nationalism. The book also examines longstanding complex themes and
issues - such as religious fundamentalism, identity formation,
democracy, and military rule -as well as their impact on the future
of the state of Pakistan. Drawing on a range of sources and written
by one of the foremost intellectuals of the region, this book will
be indispensable for scholars, researchers, students of history,
politics and South Asian studies. It will be of great interest to
the general reader interested in understanding Pakistan.
