This is a deeply impressive work: rigorously researched, closely argued and impeccably balanced in presentation. Its sweep is stunning, covering economics and politics, state and society, caste and gender, policies and institutions. Every Indian who wishes to know their country better, to more fully understand its past, present and possible future, should read this book.

'Devesh Kapur and Arvind Subramanian have combined their abundant talents as scholars and practitioners to produce an exquisitely crafted account of India's unique development trajectory. Grounded in historical detail, statistical evidence and a comparative frame, the authors weave their arguments into a rich tapestry that, like India itself, is multifaceted and defies easy characterization.
