That a land stripped of its riches, wracked by disease and famine and divided along tense communal lines, could thrive in its ambition and aspirations. Yet, in 75 years since independence, India has grown beyond anyone's expectation. Today it's an Asian powerhouse, poised to become the third largest economy in the world. In many ways, this is one of the greatest underdog- beating-the-odds stories in world history. How did India get this far? What were the sweeping social, cultural, scientific, political, military, environmental and economic developments it witnessed along the way?

It attempts to provide young readers with perspective, meaning, and food for thought as they try to comprehend the many facets of this fascinating country. This well- researched, accessible and definitive handbook tells the story of India like never before. …
