'You really get a very widescreen, panoramic view of what has happened, and what the different currents shaping events are -- whether it's regionalism, or religion, or politics or the fact that India became part of a globalised economy in the 19th century. It also covers, impartially and clear-sightedly, how India and Pakistan, the nation states, came into being, which is the big, important question if one wants to understand anything about politics in India today, or in Pakistan or indeed what is happening in Afghanistan.' -- Pankaj Mishra, The Browser.com
