Modern South Asia: History, Culture, Political Economy by Aisha Jalal and Sugata Bose

Pakistan Affairs (Suggested Reading) Book-06

The books is written in a unique style by the two historians of India and Pakistan. Both have tried to delve into the history and discussed Social, Political and economic aspects of the changing Subcontinent in early 20th Century.
First six chapters of the books discusses the History and culture of India, whereas chapter 7,8 and 9 mentioned the rise of British rule in the Indian Subcontinent. Afterwards it discusses the events from 1900 onward.
For the preparation of Pakistan Affairs the book helps in covering almost 40% of the Syllabus. Its not because the topics are not directly covered, but it creates an analytical approach towards the History. Whereas for the aspirants who adopted "History of Pakistan and India" as their optional subject, it will prove much helpful.
