Countries of the World: India

For centuries, India has been imagined as a land of snake charmers, fabulous rulers called maharajas, and masses of poor people. However, in recent years India has made notable progress in the fields of science, engineering, and information technology, leading to its development into a major political and economic power. Present-day India can be described as a land with unity in diversity, with people from all walks of life, religions, and races.

This book appropriately highlights the spirit of the land called India. While on the one hand it will introduce you to the rich heritage of ancient India, it will also show you the changing landscapes that reflect the economic development of this fascinating country.
