xii, 498 pp., index; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Stated "First Edition." Dust jacket protected in a mylar book cover. A Washington Post Best Book of 2007. "Over the past 25 years, India has moved from a largely impoverished, underdeveloped country to an innovative, fast-changing society. This entertaining and informative book shows how and why. Interest in India has never been greater. Here Shashi Tharoor, one of the subcontinent's most respected writers and diplomats, offers precious insights into this complex, multifaceted land, which despite its dazzling diversity of languages, customs, and cultures remains--more than 60 years after its founding--the world's largest democracy. He describes the vast changes that have transformed this once sleeping giant into a world leader in science and technology, a nation once poverty-stricken that now boasts a middle class of over 300 million people--as large as the entire population of the United States! Artfully combining hard facts and statistics with opinion and observation, Tharoor discusses the strengths and weaknesses of his rapidly evolving homeland in five areas--politics, economics, culture, society, and sports--and takes a fresh look at the world's second most populous country. / SHASHI THAROOR is the author of three novels, Riot, Show Business,and The Great Indian Novel, and two works of nonfiction, India: From Midnight to the Millenniumand Nehru: A Biography, all published by Arcade. He has written for the New York Times, the Washington Post,the International Herald Tribune, the Times of India, the Indian Express, and Foreign Affairs. He was born in London and educated in India and the United States. Winner of a Commonwealth Writers Prize, Tharoor is the United Nations undersecretary of communication and public information. He lives in New York City." - Publisher.
