This up-to-date encyclopedia examines the conflict between India and Pakistan from Independence to the present day, with an authoritative treatment that presents the issues evenhandedly and from both countries' perspectives.Tensions between India and Pakistan are deeply rooted. Many go back to 1947 or earlier, when, with the partitioning of the provinces of Punjab and Bengal, British India was succeeded by two independent countries: a primarily Hindu India and a Muslim Pakistan. Subsequently, the two countries have fought three wars and come close to open war several other times, especially over Kashmir.Conflict Between India and Pakistan begins with a discussion of the partition of India and those who figured prominently in it, notably: Mohammed Ali Jinnah, Clem Attlee, the last viceroy, Admiral Louis Mountbatten, and Jawaharlal Nehru. Then, in a series of evenhanded, carefully crafted portraits, it describes the people, political parties, foreign and domestic policies, and economic, religious, and cultural pressures that have played a role in the conflicts between these nations from 1947 to the present.Detailed entries deal with towns, cities, and geographic areas, including Jammu, Srinigar, and the Siachen Glacier; major figures involved in the conflict, including General Pervez Musharraf; the religious divide between Hindus and Muslims; and the dispute over KashmirA thorough chronology provides year-by-year treatment of the main issues in Indo-Pakistan relations

The ultimate inside story of Toyota’s spectacular modern-era triumph in the World Rally Championship.From the adrenaline-charged forests of Finland to the icy roads of Monte Carlo, Toyota – through its motorsport arm, Gazoo Racing – has redefined what it means to win at the highest level of rallying. This book tells the full and rarely shared story of that journey, charting the team’s rise from ambitious comeback to championship dominance.Opening with a vivid look back at Toyota’s pioneering years in the rallying arena, it sets the stage for the brand’s remarkable return to the WRC in 2017. From there, the narrative follows every single Gazoo Racing entry right through to the end of the 2024 season, offering in-depth technical insights, season-by-season reports, and compelling profiles of the drivers who pushed the cars – and themselves – to the limit.Each chapter brings the action to life with a wealth of detail: evolving car designs and engineering breakthroughs, behind-the-scenes strategy shifts, and the grit and determination that powered Toyota to the top. Exclusive interviews with key members of the team offer an insider’s perspective on the challenges and victories along the way.Accompanied by a breathtaking selection of factory-sourced photography – capturing the mud, dust, snow, and glory of rally stages around the world – this is more than just a record of results. It’s a celebration of the vision and passion of Akio Toyoda, Gazoo Racing’s founder and Toyota’s Chairman, whose own Foreword opens the story.Meticulously researched and written by two acclaimed Japan-based motoring journalists, this definitive volume not only documents one of motorsport’s greatest modern success stories, but also fills an important gap in rallying history. For fans of the WRC, Toyota, or high-octane motorsport, it is a must-have tribute to speed, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of victory.
