Summary: | Points to information about the turbulent region that helped shape the fortunes of northwest India, was partitioned between Indian and Pakistan in 1947, and has seen separatist movements and violence in both halves in the past few decades. Meanwhile a growing diaspora community is creating yet a third Punjab. Over 1,000 sources are described and assessed for such aspects as archaeology and ancient history, language and dialects, social structure and anthropology, finance and banking, education, and sports and recreation. Includes a 25-page introduction, a glossary without pronunciation, a chronology, two maps, and a bank of indexes. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |
