Summary:

In this age of globalisation the book, Nuclear Power and Politics of South Asia- New Disclosures, unfolds different stages of the growth of nuclear energy and its proliferation in the region South Asia with added emphasis on nuclear weapon development in India and Pakistan. In previous decades the region remained at the centre of world focus due to intended global and regional strategic interests of China and the United States. Even the present day nature of world politics did not help solve the nuclear uncertainties of South Asian nuclear weapon power states whose hostility and mistrust for each other is widely known and accepted. Establishment of nuclear stability will make this part of the globe free from deprivation of all kinds.
