Whereas standard accounts focus on the US-Pakistan relationship in isolation, Pakistan: The US, Geopolitics and Grand Strategies provides a broader geopolitical perspective. It analyses Pakistan's relations with the US after a decade of the war on terror as well as Pakistan's regional relations, which provides the reader with a comprehensive understanding of Pakistan's interests.
Contributions from experts in both Pakistan and the West make this book vital reading for anyone seeking to understand this troubled nation.

It is a singularly valuable contribution to a field of study all too often dominated by a particular national orientation' -- Paul Rogers, Professor of Peace Studies, University of BradfordMore details
