This book analyses how the Indus Water Treaty has been at the center of the turbulent relationship between India and Pakistan. Through history, political dynamics and the roles of key leaders, it explores the evolution and workings of one of the world's most crucial transboundary water agreements. The Indus Basin is a witness to conflict, compromise and survival. If you seek to understand the true pulse of India-Pakistan relations, start with the rivers that bind them. The answers, like the Indus itself, run deeper than they appear.

UTTAM KUMAR SINHA is one of India's leading commentators on transboundary water issues. After a brief stint in the print media and a doctoral degree from Jawaharlal Nehru University, he joined the Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses in 2001 (now renamed as Manohar Parrikar-IDSA) where he heads the non-traditional security center and is the managing editor of Strategic Analysis, the institute's flagship journal, published by Routledge.

He is a recipient of many fellowships, including senior fellow at the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (2018-20); an academic visitor at the Harvard Kennedy School (2015); Chevening 'Gurukul' scholar at the London School of Economics and Political Science (2008); and a visiting fellow at the Peace Research Institute Oslo (2006).
His noted works include Riverine Neighbourhood: Hydro-Politics in South Asia (2016) and Climate Change Narrative: Reading the Arctic (2014).
