Beginning in 1947, when "India and Pakistan were born to conflict,"
renowned India scholar Stanley Wolpert provides an authoritative,
accessible primer on what is potentially the world's most dangerous
crisis. He concisely distills sixty-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. While the
tragic Partition left many urgent problems, none has been more
difficult than the problem over Kashmir, claimed by both India and
Pakistan. This intensely divisive issue has triggered two
conventional wars, killed some 100,000 Kashmiris, and almost
ignited two nuclear wars since 1998, when both India and Pakistan
openly emerged as nuclear-weapon states. In addition to providing a
comprehensive perspective on the origin and nature of this urgent
conflict, Wolpert examines all the proposed solutions and concludes
with a road map for a brighter future for South Asia.
