 Ottoman Turkey, Atatürk, and Muslim
South Asia
Perspectives, Perceptions, and Responses
M. Naeem Qureshi
This book examines the South Asian perceptions of and responses
to the political events that unfolded with the dismemberment of
the Ottoman Empire and the formation of the Turkish Republic by
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. The book analyses nineteenth-century
pan-Islam in South Asia, and unfolds its expression in South Asia in
the context of British and Allied policies towards the Turks. It also
2014
tries to explain why South Asians, with a little nudging from men
407 pages
like Iqbal and Jinnah, switched their sympathies from the Ottomans
Hardback
to the nationalists under Atatürk, and how they viewed the process
978-0-19-906634-6
of modernization in Turkey, in comparison with the Muslims of
234x156 mm
Afghanistan and Iran. Lastly, the book attempts to examine the
Rs 1650
enduring relevance of pan-Islam as a tool in the politics of Pakistan
and ventures to measure its trajectory in the future.
M. Naeem Qureshi has been Higher Education Commission’s Eminent
Professor of History at Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad.

Curzon’s India
Networks of Colonial Governance, 1899–1905
Dhara Anjaria
George Curzon was arguably India’s most aspiring Viceroy; he came
out with the intention to reform and streamline the administration
of India. He achieved this in large measure, aided and hindered by a
host of officials and administrators, in India and in England. This book
looks at Curzon’s relationships with the different departments of
the British Government of India. It examines two basic, intersecting
themes that defined the course of George Curzon’s Viceroyalty of
2014
India: executive power and the checks upon it. The book explores
450 pages
the factors that helped and hindered Curzon in his quest to integrate
Hardback the disparate elements that made up the Government of India into
978-0-19-906998-9 an efficient administrative framework which ran along the lines he
234x156 mm wished.

Sufi Music in the Indus Valley
Peter Pannke
This is a personal travelogue through the music and the culture of
the Indus Valley as presented by the German writer and musician,
Peter Pannke and photographer, Horst A. Friedrichs in 1997. When
Peter Pannke first travelled to Pakistan in 1969, what he discovered
was not only the music but also the words and images, the colours
and customs which make up the extraordinarily rich cultural tapestry
of the Indus Valley. The author’s second visit to the country was in
2014 1997. Travelling up and down the Indus, he found the music to be
168 pages even richer and more varied than he had remembered. He met the
Hardback musicians himself, recorded their songs, and listened to their stories.
978-0-19-547877-8 Since then, not only has the appearance of some of the Sufi shrines
280x210 mm changed, but also many of the musicians portrayed in this book
Rs 2800 have passed away. This book guides the reader to the heart of the
With 2 Music CDs Sufi traditions through a combination of text, photographs and the
music itself.
Peter Pannke is an independent writer and composer settled in Berlin.

 I’ll Find My Way
An Anthology of Short Stories
Edited by Maniza Naqvi
The anthology is a testament to the talent of new writers from
Pakistan. This collection of stories—written for a story-writing
competition arranged by Oxford University Press Pakistan—is
based on the idea that everyone has a good story to tell. These
stories, written by many individuals separately, together chronicle
the human spirit. There are four themes, ‘Paved and Unpaved Ways’,
‘The Meaning of Me’, ‘Because this is what Matters’ and ‘The Bravest
2014 Place on Earth’. These are stories of kindness and empathy, social
472 pages injustice—and a real sense of belief and hope for a better future.
Paperback
Maniza Naqvi’s works include four novels, Mass Transit, On Air, Stay with Me,
978-0-19-940026-3
and A Matter of Detail, and a book of short stories Sarajevo Saturdays.

Jammu and Kashmir to the Union of India. It delves into the intricacies
of the Kashmir problem, bringing to light many hitherto unknown or
forgotten issues and facts relating to the troubled history of the state.
The articles, divided thematically into three major headings, namely,
The Indo–Pak Dispute, The US and Kashmir, and The Endgame,
2014 provide a critical perspective on the issues that are raised. The book
562 pages concludes with a selection of both archival and contemporary
Hardback documents, which highlight some important episodes in the history
978-0-19-940018-8 of the formation of the state of Jammu & Kashmir and provide a
240x180 mm background to the current political reality.
