Former Foreign Secretary, J.N. Dixit presents an insider's account of the most critical phase in Indo-Sri Lanka relations since the two countries became independent. The book captures the drama and tension of his years in Colombo. This is an objective, analytical and introspective book on important dimensions of India's regional policies during a highly critical period of recent history. Thoughtful and provocative, this book is motivated by his conviction that public opinion should be fully informed about major foreign policy decisions in a democratic country. About The Author: J.N. Dixit has written his memoirs on the most interesting of his diplomatic assignments (as India's High Commissioner to Sri Lanka 1985-89) in his 36-year-long career in the Indian Foreign Service
