  
Second only to China in its economic miracle, India is undergoing one of the most momentous national transformations the world has ever seen. In India: A Portrait, Patrick French gives us an intimate biography of 1.2 billion people as their country is transforming in front of their eyes examines from a listless planned economy to capitalist and entrepreneurial powerhouse. Follwed by a book sale and signing.
[With] a wealth of research, a mischievous sense of humour and a keen eye for the absurd and the bizarre.... French deftly navigates this labyrinth of conflicting influences with
an account of a country looking both forward and backward. Stanley Stewart, Sunday Times
