5.0 out of 5 stars INDIA: THE SIEGE WITHIN, April 25, 2000
By 
This review is from: Riot After Riot (Paperback)
This is literally one of the best books I have ever read. Without any sensationalism or any hidden injecting of opinion, MJ Akbar takes a person from scratch on the tensions in Tamil Nadu, Kashmir, and Punjab, and goes right to the essential facts and background and emotions and motives behind these crises. He is a wonderful story-teller, but does not become so enamored as to just be for the sake of it. Every word is important. He includes his analysis and his take on it, but is always explicit and frank about it. A most highly objective and intelligent presentation of the crises.
