The Spy Chronicles: RAW, ISI and the Illusion of Peace Hardcover – May 31, 2018

Very good. I liked the honest conversational style with both parties providing their perspectives. Different from the one sided articles appearing in the newspapers in their respective countries.

Good read in terms of having some insight in reading minds of people working in establishment, through the words from this book

I bought this book with assumption that author will narrate various situations how RAW and ISI tackles each other like bond movies... but this book might few instances it’s beyond these two great institutions. It really changed my perception about ISI and how really actual people think...rather than just following the exaggerated news in paper or TV channels...it’s really sad how typical Kashmir thinks about Delhi and Islamabad...how the rest of the world thinks about India and Pakistan...also Kashmir issue is stand still due political advantage

Not much revealed, just two ex-chiefs talking about stuff from the past with a lot of may be, could be.

Paid full price $25 for a book that was purchaed in rupees.The book is interesting and opens up a window into the how the spy agencies work. Importantly, how the American, Russian and MI-6 are perceived by the RAW and ISI. Great dialogue between a military trained spy master and a civil services RAW head.

Product as described

A great read, a great dialogue between two thought leaders of our times, and with great optimism on how to render solutions on the most significant conflict amongst the generations.

This book might seem remotely interesting to an outsider but those of us who have lived in subcontinent will find it extremely hard to derive anything if substance from this book. There is nothing new. Not even new ideas other than a demented general rambling on and on. Complete waste of time and money.
