Engaging India: Diplomacy, Democracy, And the Bomb: Revised Edition

In this revised edition of the highly praised Engaging India, Strobe Talbott updates his bestselling diplomatic account of America’s parallel negotiations with India and Pakistan over nuclear proliferation in the late 1990s. The update looks at recent nuclear dealings between India and the United States, including Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s 2005 visit to America. Under the highly controversial agreement that emerged, the United States would give India access to U.S. nuclear technology and conventional weapons systems. In exchange, India would place its civilian nuclear program under international monitoring and continue the ban on nuclear testing.
