This book is essentially a reference book on the history of Modern India. It is a general history of India under British rule from the eighteenth century to the events and movements up to 2014. It is divided in to nine thematic chapters which focus more on the Indian people than on the colonial rulers. In other words, it is a very useful account of the emergence of India as a nation and its development in contemporary times as of 2014. It is the most updated book on its subject as it incorporates most recent researches in this area of study.
As the praise of the first edition :
“The best and most objective account of the period” – Tony Ballantyne, New Zealand Journal of Asian Studies.
“Accessible and thorough, this laudable textbook, will find place in every undergraduate’s essential reading list and in every history library.” – Partho Datta, The Book Review
“This book takes into account the materialistic factors in [its] analysis, which makes [it] more comprehensive than many others.” – M. Abul Fazal, Dawn
