Summary: 
From Amazon.com: "Britain's transfer of power to India and Pakistan in August of 1947 was a cataclysmic event in modern history. Anita Inder Singh shows that although long-term strategic interests of Britain were against partition, short-term tactics encouraged this major act of decolonization."
