A must read
India isn't just a call center or somewhere far off and mystical anymore. Planet India shows the diversity of what India is today and reality how it will influence the rest of the world.
doesn't explain why..
i left this book half way because i find it way too detailed and missing to show the bigger picture. I was expecting this book to be something which may explain things on a more macro level. more like why things are happening the way they are happening in india and not what all is happening india. For someone from india, its even less interesting as we know the current state of things in india, what we are trying to figure is how this all came to be and how are things looking 5-10 years down the line.
Definite Must Read for Indiaphiles
Great info on India. First hand observations by a knowledgeable author. Read her "Motiba's Tattoos" too. [ASIN:1891620584 Motiba's Tattoos: A Granddaughter's Journey into her Indian Family's Past]] I thoroughly enjoyed Planet India and Motiba's Tattoo's. Terrific writer!
