Revue de presse

'The book is an excellent reader on South Asian affairs, especially for anyone with a particular interest in one of the two states but with less knowledge of the other. it is also a fine résumé of developments over the first fifty years and can thus be strongly recommended as an acquisition for any South Asia collection.' International Quarterly for Asian Studies
