Eagles of Destiny is based on extensive research conducted over more than 20 years, including interviews with many officers who were part of the events covered by the book. Extensive use has been made of historical materials available in archives in the UK and the US, along with archival material provided to the authors by senior PAF veterans and their families. Published works on PAF history and South Asian air power by both Pakistani and foreign sources were also used for this book.
The book is illustrated with dozens of unique photographs, some of which have never been published before, along with specially commissioned maps and color artworks.
In what remains one of his most seminal papers, Freud considers the incompatibility of civilisation and individual happiness, and the tensions between the claims of society and the individual. We all know that living in civilised groups means sacrificing a degree of personal interest, but couldn’t you argue that it in fact creates the conditions for our happiness? Freud explores the arguments and counter-arguments surrounding this proposition, focusing on what he perceives to be one of society’s greatest dangers; ‘civilised’ sexual morality. After all, doesn’t repression of sexuality deeply affect people and compromise their chances of happiness?
“On the occasion of Saadat Hasan Manto’s birth centenary, there is a pressing need to put the record straight by making his work accessible across the linguistic divide between Urdu and English that hinders a free-flowing exchange of ideas within Pakistan. Consisting exclusively of Manto’s writings, this limited edition commemorative volume is intended to be as much a visually pleasing experience as a reading one. Divided into four parts, it showcases Manto’s autobiographical pieces; personality sketches, selected short stories and essays, and for the first time brings into the public domain several hitherto unpublished photographs of the author and his family and friends.” Ayesha Jalal
Published in 2012, on the occasion of Manto’s centenary, this volume carries selected original Urdu writings of Manto, along with their English translations. Also included are essays on Manto by contemporary authors including Ayesha Jalal. A must-have for fans of Saadat Hassan Manto.
East Pakistan to Bangladesh is an intimate, yet action-packed narration of real-life events experienced by Brig. (R.) Saadullah Khan’s 27th Infantry Brigade in the 1971 War. It is also Khan’s ode to his brave soldiers who fought gallantly by his side. In his rundown, Khan reveals Pakistan surrendered too early in a war that could have been won. Brig. Saadullah Khan offers a revelatory insight into secrets of the 1971 war that some would rather bury. It tells a frame-by-frame story of the combat from someone right during the fight. He saw with his own eyes how the sacrifices of his soldiers were discarded and victory was stolen from just within their grasp.
“Zafar represents the dawn of a new era. Perhaps we are coming out of medieval times of silent policymaking by the well-connected to putting out ideas and developing conversations on important issues. I commend Zafar for contributing to a conversation on national policymaking.”

“Out of the Box” is more than a compilation of economic opinions; it is a mosaic of experiences, ideas, and resilience. Zafar Masud’s miraculous survival serves as a metaphorical lens through which readers, without negating the challenges facing Pakistan’s economy, are encouraged to adopt an OOTB approach to rescue the economy and strengthen Pakistan’s societal fabric.”

With over 30,000 inhabitants and governed by competing militias, Ayn al-Hilwe in the south of Lebanon is one of the most contested refugee camps in the Middle East. Known as the ‘Capital of the Palestinian Diaspora,’ the camp has endured a long history of internal power struggles and external influence and intervention.
Based on extensive ethnographic research in the camp – focused on the actors who have shaped its modern political trajectory since the rupture caused by the 1993 Oslo Accords – The Palestinian National Movement in Lebanon places the attention on the role of exile leaderships, camp-based militia commanders and shape-shifting networks of patronage in the political landscape of the Palestinian movement in Lebanon. Offering original empirical and theoretical findings, this book will be essential reading for students of the Palestinian movement and refugee politics in the Middle East and beyond.
