It is almost unprecedented for a head of state to publish a memoir while still in office. But Pervez Musharraf is no ordinary head of state. As President of Pakistan since 1999, his is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, and he continues to play a crucial role in the global war on terror. A one-time supporter of the Taliban, a general who fought in several wars, President Musharraf took a decisive turn against militant Islam in 2001. Since then he has survived two assassination attempts; rooted out militants in his own government; helped direct countless raids against al-Qaeda both in his cities and in the mountains; and tracked Osama bin Laden with technical and human intelligence. IN THE LINE OF FIRE is astonishingly revealing and honest about dozens of topics of intense interest to the world. Among its many revelations: exactly how Pakistani authorities tracked down and smashed three major al-Qaeda control centres in the mountains; how al-Qaeda's many-layered structure was revealed after the assassination attempts; Bin Laden's current position within the al-Qaeda hierarchy; what it has been like to deal with Bush and Blair; how Pakistan and India have avoided nuclear confrontation; and much more. The terrible earthquake of 2005, killing nearly 40,000 Pakistanis, is just one chapter in a life and career that has been filled with danger and drama. The worldwide launch of President Musharraf's memoir promises to be a sensation.

Pakistan

Origins, Identity and Future

By: Pervez Hoodbhoy

This book is an accessible, comprehensive, and nuanced history of Pakistan. It reflects upon state and society in Pakistan and shows they have been shaped by historical forces and personae. Hoodbhoy expertly maps the journey of the region from many millennia ago to the circumstances and impulses that gave birth to the very first state in history founded upon religious identity. He documents colonial rule, the trauma of Partition, the nation’s wars with India, the formation of Bangladesh, and the emergence of Baloch nationalism. The book also examines longstanding complex themes and issues – such as religious fundamentalism, identity formation, democracy, and military rule – as well as their impact on the future of the state of Pakistan. Drawing on a range of sources and written by one of the foremost intellectuals of the region, this book will be indispensable for scholars, researchers, students of history, politics, and South Asian studies. It will be of great interest to the general reader interested in understanding Pakistan.

Trust Me, I'm a Scientist

By: Pervez Hoodbhoy,Daniel Glaser,Steven Shapin

Why should we trust scientists? What happens to trust when scientists are seduced by politics, religion, money or glory? Public trust in scientists may be waning - is this simply a longterm shift or does it tell us something important about our societies and our world?

A onetimesupporter of the Taliban, a general who fought in several wars, President Musharraf took a decisive turn against militant Islamin 2001. Since then he has survived two assassination attempts; rooted out militants in his own government; helped directcountless raids against Al Qaeda both in his cities and in the mountains; and tracked Osama Bin Laden with technical andhuman intelligence. When you hold the world s most dangerous job, you have little left to lose - - and as a result, AGNIPATH isastonishingly revealing and honest about dozens of topics of intense interest to the world. Among its many revelations: exactlyhow Pakistani authorities tracked down and smashed three major Al Qaeda command-and-control centers in the mountains;how Al Qaeda s many-layered structure was revealed after the assassination attempts; how Osama Bin Laden s communicationnetwork was breached, and how his subsequent courier network was compromised; why Bin Laden is no longerin charge of Al Qaeda, and yet why his capture is so sensitive; why the costs of the Iraq War have been so great for the west,and for moderate Muslims; what the interrogations of A.Q. Khan have revealed; what it has been like to deal with the BushAdministration; how Pakistan and India have avoided nuclear confrontation; and much more.
