Pentagon Press Asian Strategic Review: India as a Security Provider
India`s role as a security provider has increasingly been discussed and debated over a period of time. This has received a fillip as a result of India`s growing capabilities, both economic and military. The 2015 edition of the Asian Strategic Review, is possibly the first book which analyses this facet in the Asian context. The book assesses India`s capabilities as well as existing limitations. It contextualises India`s role in relation to important regions, multinational fora and specific countries in Asia. The publication aims to provide greater clarity on the past, present and future contours of India`s role as a security provider, in light of evolving strategic contours and its security implications.

Pentagon Press 1971 India-Pakistan War: 50 Years Later
Five decades may not be a long time in a nation's history. It is however, long enough to take a dispassionate and objective look at events that change the path of history. The 1971 India-Pakistan War, along with the incidents that preceded it and followed its culmination, is perhaps one of the most important ones for the future of the Indian subcontinent.There have been a number of books, memoirs and articles over the years that have documented first-person and academic accounts of events that marked this period of history. Not surprisingly, most were written during the period succeeding the war and after the birth of Bangladesh. In contrast, this book is an attempt to evaluate events with the benefit of a five-decade time lapse. In doing so, the focus remains firmly on the military aspects of the war, accompanied by a brief account of political events, diplomacy, influence of major powers, public perception and the role of Mukti Bahini.The publication of this book coincides with the culmination of a year-long period during which a number of events were held to mark the momentous occasion.
