Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

The point about M. Iqbal Khan’s bunyaadi Engineering Drawing being the only Urdu undergrad text is striking, especially given it sold over 33,000 copies in its first decade. That demand suggests the dearth isn’t about language preference but about publishing incentives. I’d be curious whether the NISTE-prescribed titles from the 2000s are still in print today.
