This Very Short Introduction looks at Pakistan as one of the two nation-states of the Indian sub-continent that emerged in 1947. Pippa Virdee reaches into the ancient past to understand the complex tapestry of linguistic, ethnic, and cultural identities and tensions of the region today. She also considers the challenges of the 21st century and the future of Pakistan."--Front cover flap.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 954.91 Vi   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 954.91 Vi Very Short Checked In Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 954.91 Vi pbk Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 954.91 Vi   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
