Recenzje

'… this book has two daunting tasks: introducing India to those new to the country, yet adding value for those more familiar with it; and focusing on recent developments, while at the same time providing sufficient historical background. This short, punchy volume manages these tasks admirably well … this is a solid piece of work that succeeds admirably at speaking authoritatively to different audiences. It belongs on the bookshelf of those approaching India for the first time, as well as those seeking a reference work on the country.' Asian Journal of Social Science
