    If you'd stay posted on the latest in "The Great Game"(the hegemonic/imperialist competition for control of Central Asia; first coined by Sir Ruyard Kipling), this is invaluable.

    Informative, well-researched, but I can't get around the military mindedness--if you will--and the book's overall tone. I would say it's boarderline bias, but I don't think this is the author's intent.
