"Although Pakistan is now a nuclear power, to some observers it remains a 'failed state', mired in violence, corruption and economic crisis. However, despite its chequered history of martial law and civil strife, it has always confounded its obituary-writers." "In Pakistan: A Modern History Ian Talbot charts the problems which have beset Pakistan since its chaotic birth in 1947."--BOOK JACKET.
