This is a groundbreaking and utterly compelling treatise on contemporary India’s troubled relationship with modernity. The author’s magisterial historical analysis conveys modern India’s energy, fluidity and unpredictability. Throughout he provokes and illuminates a fundamental question as urgent now as ever: Can the original Idea of India survive its own successes?
