The Idiot's Guide to Pakistan

Foreign Policy is a sometime favourite read of mine. Check out this worthwhile primer on the politics of Pakistan.

Coincidentally, I happened upon Aatish Taseer's book, Stranger to History: A Son's Journey Through Islamic Lands. The book is a travelogue of the Islamic nations of the world and an exploration of what it means to be a Muslim growing up in the West. The Guardian reviewed his book in March of this year.
