Tinderbox: The Past and Future of Pakistan

Trama

In Tinderbox: The Past and Future of Pakistan , acclaimed author and journalist M. J. Akbar traces the search for a “Muslim space” that began in the eighteenth century, and the events, people, circumstances, and mind-set that culminated in a fractured India in 1947. But why is Pakistan in danger of becoming a “jelly state,” a country that constantly quivers on the edge of instability?
