Born in Lahore, Tariq Ali's grandfather was Prime Minister of the Punjab and his uncle was head of Pakistan's Military Intelligence. While Ali has written extensively about the country, his latest offering The Duel sees him assess the prospects of the contending groups in Pakistan, drawing on extensive first-hand research and personal knowledge of many of the key players involved. With customary verve and acuity, he considers the causes and consequences of Pakistan's rapid spiral into political chaos and explores a number of controversial topics, including America's complex relationship with Pakistan and the power each country wields over the other.
