By the author of Destiny Disrupted: an enlightening, accessible History of modern Afghanistan from the Afghan point of view, showing how Great Power conflicts have Interrupted its ongoing, internal struggle to take form as a nation By the author of Destiny Disrupted: An enlightening, lively, accessible, History of Afghanistan from 1840 to today, from the Afghan point of view, that illuminates how Great Power conflicts have Interrupted an ongoing, internal struggle to take form as a nation.
And as Tamim Ansary shows in this illuminating history, every intervention has come to grief in much the same way and for much the same reason: The intervening power has failed to understand that Afghanistan has a story of its own, a story that continues to unfold between, and despite, the interv.

By the author of Destiny Disrupted: An enlightening, lively, accessible, History of Afghanistan from 1840 to today, from the Afghan point of view, that illuminates how Great Power conflicts have Interrupted an ongoing, internal struggle to take form as a nation.
A compelling narrative told in an accessible, conversational style, Games Without Rules offers revelatory insight into a country long at the center of international debate, but never fully understood by the outside world.
Ansary paints a richly textured portrait of a nation that began to form around the same time as the United States but is still struggling to coalesce; a nation driven by its high ambitions but undermined by its own demons, while every forty to sixty years a great power crashes in and disrupts whatever progress has been made.
Drawing on his Afghan background, Muslim roots, and Western and Afghan sources, Ansary weaves an epic that moves from a universe of village republics--the old Afghanistan--through a tumultuous drama of tribes, factions, and forces, to the current struggle.
Games Without Rules tells this story from the inside looking out.
