Review Quotes:
"Every so often a book comes along that makes a significant contribution to the corpus of available Afghanistan literature. This is such a book...Exhaustively researched with copius end-notes, Dr. Misdaq's book will educate, enlighten and enthrall the reader, be they student, historian or policy maker yet who also harbor a desire to understand the complexity and mosaic of a nation poised at the gates of the fiercely competitive, energy-rich Central Asian and Caspian deposits...This and much, much more can be found in this remarkable and compelling historical work by Dr. Misdaq. I can therefore recommend without reservation "Afghanistan, Political Fraility and External Interference." Bruce G. Richardson, Author, May 2007
"This is a thoroughly researched and compassionately argued work. I will recommend this book as a must for all those who have an interest in the geo-politics of Afghanistan" - Dr Farouq Azam, former Afghan Minister of Education, 2006
