Synopsis:

This up-to-date encyclopedia examines the conflict between India and Pakistan from Independence to the present day, with an authoritative treatment that presents the issues evenhandedly and from both countries' perspectives.


· Detailed entries deal with towns, cities, and geographic areas, including Jammu, Srinigar, and the Siachen Glacier; major figures involved in the conflict, including General Pervez Musharraf; the religious divide between Hindus and Muslims; and the dispute over Kashmir

· A thorough chronology provides year-by-year treatment of the main issues in Indo-Pakistan relations

Book Description:

India and Pakistan confront each other, with opposing ethnic and religious forces threatening far-reaching social and political convulsions. These two nations have a long complex history over the past 60 years. Because both countries now possess nuclear weapons, could the next Indo-Pakistan conflict involve nuclear war?
