About the book:

Looking at Pakistan's foreign policy since 1947, one theme stands out with unmistakable clarity: the sheer weight of geography and history in its relationship with India. It is plain to see how the proximity has been both a source of strategic anxiety and a wellspring of unrealized potential. So many of Pakistan's policies derive from being a neighbour of India. The hopes, the misgivings, the overtures toward peaceful coexistence, and the opportunities and concerns that emanate from it – all seem to orbit around one question: Pakistan and India have remained stuck between a fractured past and an uncertain future. Is it because they could not resolve disputes or is there a larger obstacle to peace? This book is an attempt to answer that question. It examines the missteps of the past and explores whether a different and more hopeful future might yet be in reach.
