Summary:

"A highly interesting and instructive book, a compilation of published columns and book reviews by Ammar Ali Qureshi. His scholarship, his command over the entire gamut of subjects that he delves into in each of his pieces, from columns to book reviews, and his captivating style makes the reading of the book a pleasurable experience" - Muhammad Ziauddin, former Executive Editor The Express Tribune. *** "Ammar Ali Qureshi has done something refreshing that is not frequently seen in this part of the world. Borrowing from his guru AJP Taylor, he has picked some of his own published book reviews and essays from the last fifteen years to bring a book into shape. Qureshi's lens is wide, whether it is trends, people, history, contemporary politics or culture. Each piece is interesting and readable, and carries the mark of his depth of knowledge and erudition. Therein lies the value of this publication." - Farah Zia, former Editor The News on Sunday. *** "Ammar Ali Qureshi's unique blend of political analysis, cultural salience and spirit of reform shines through in this great collection of articles he has written during a most crucial time in Pakistan's history. Voices like Qureshi's help connect the high minded with the banal in just the right measure."- Mosharraf Zaidi, Columnist The News, and Policy Analyst
