Pathway to India's Partition: The march to Pakistan, 1937-1947
This work in three volumes represents the first thorough and dispassionate study of the background of India`s partition.The basic premise of the author is that the emergence of Pakistan was neither the result of a fluke nor of false consciousness, but of the working of powerful historical and social forces.The author examines in depth the historical and socio-political foundations of Muslim nationalism and its evolution and gives a fresh look to the events between 1937 and 1947, the complex realities at various stages and the roles of the key decision makers.
