- Synopsis
- Wynbrandt, a writer and journalist, explores the historical precedents and events that have placed Pakistan firmly in the center of the global war on terror, an ideological conflict between dictatorship and democracy, and between secular and Islamic rule. This brief account touches on a number of topics, including the young country's people, its tumultuous past, the Islamization of Pakistan, Pakistan during the rule of Pervez Musharraf, the country's nuclear weapons program, and its relations with the United States, Afghanistan, and India.
