Praise for Pakistan's Islamist Frontier:

“Joshua White has done an extraordinary task in revisiting commonly held assumptions about one of the most complex areas of Pakistan.

“Joshua has intimate, detailed knowledge of Islamic politics, Pashtun nationalism, and the roots of radicalism in Pakistan's Frontier regions.

His suggested policy initiatives should greatly interest a new American administration and Congress.”
