The result is a painstaking, thoroughly researched writing on the unsavory happenings in Afghanistan and their grave implications for the neighborhood, and India in particular. "Without aiming to take sides in the protracted civil war in Afghanistan, the book analyses what may lie in store for Afghanistan and the region. The envisaged five future scenarios are: (a) Taliban rule; (b) Taliban defeat; (c) arms embargo with the objective of imposing a broad-based government; (d) emergence of an Islamic emirate of Afghanistan; and (e) emergence of a Greater Pashtunistan, accompanied by break-up of Pakistan.
