Kashmir in Conflict by Victoria Schofield
Why has the valley of Kashmir become the focus of a dispute with the potential for nuclear conflict? Victoria Schofield's book examines the Kashmir question, from the period when the valley was an independent kingdom to the 2002 flare-up.
Schofield succeeds admirably by keeping the plight of ordinary Kashmiris to the foreHer account of a decade-long, still unfinished insurgency is scrupulous. -The Independent this is one of the most articulately presented and balanced studies of the region and its politics that one has had the pleasure to pick up and read in recent times. -Sayved Nadeem Kazmi, Dialogue 6/2000 'Ms. Schofield, with many years' experience of the region, is a reliable guide through the multiplicity of geographical, historical, cultural, social and international factors... As a journalist by background, she is able to bring the analysis to life... Anyone concerned with the future of South Asia will find that Ms. Schofield's book will enrich their understanding of what is at stake.' -Andrew Hall, Asian Affairs (2001) Schofield has written a brilliant book that will stand as an authoritative source of insight -Tor H. Aase, Center for Mountain Studies
