Professor Talbot has drawn on both British and American diplomatic sources and has spoken to many of the British diplomats who witnessed and helped to respond to the many difficult issues that have affected Britain's relations with Pakistan and their ability to influence events. [...] his book breaks new ground for a diplomatic history in examining both the impact of social media and the importance of personal relationships in the conduct of public diplomacy. [...] this book provides valuable insights into the work of British diplomats, many of them as Talbot more than once reminds us, of exceptional ability, in a period of massive global and regional turbulence and change. William Crawley, Asian Affairs, Volume 52, 2021 - Issue 2
