This review is from: Kashmir: Roots of Conflict, Paths to Peace (Hardcover)
Numerous books have been written on Kashmir -- most are either too academic or too journalistic. This book is a refreshing mix of academic rigor and readable narrative. The author admirably stays away from political diatribes or predictive posturing that many South Asian authors tend to relish. Perhaps the only missing element is the relative lack of fieldwork on the Pakistani side of Kashmir which may have provided some further insights. Chapter 5 is a special treat to read as it provides clear and plausible recommendations for conflict resolution. Overall an excellent effort.

An unbiased historical study of the conflict.,
This review is from: Kashmir: Roots of Conflict, Paths to Peace (Paperback)
Just gone thru. the book. Find it commendable. Only one aspect--the role of Pakistan faction and the militant Kashmiri Muslims in Azad Kashmir--needs a detail treatment to balance the study. Suggestions made in the last chapter worth consideration. The conflict of Kashmir is one of the volcanoes that can erupt the peace of the world any time; while the other being the Palestine-Israel conflict. ISRAR HASAN.
