Explore the candid dialogues between A.S. Dulat and Asad Durrani, moderated by Neil K. Aggarwal, uncovering the intricacies of India-Pakistan relations and the path to peace. After the success of “The Spy Chronicles,” A.S. Dulat and Asad Durrani engaged in a series of conversations about the psychology of war and peace. These discussions, enriched by psychiatrist Neil K. Aggarwal, have evolved into this fascinating book. “Covert” takes readers into the minds of these two spymasters, exploring the personal and professional paths that shaped them in their formative years. The conversation delves into how their Indian and Pakistani identities have influenced them. Under Aggarwal’s skillful moderation, the discussion shifts to international relations, examining why India and Pakistan cooperate in some areas but not in others. The result is a candid, thought-provoking analysis of the peacebuilding process between two nations that, despite their apparent hostility, share a deep history and cultural ties. The dialogues in “Covert” highlight the strong camaraderie between Dulat and Durrani, both former heads of intelligence in their countries. More importantly, it offers profound insights into the complex world of negotiation and subterfuge. This book is a revealing and essential read for anyone interested in peace and harmony in South Asia.
