India After Gandhi: The History of the World's Largest Democracy is one of the best non-fiction books I have ever read. As the name suggests, this book deals with Indian history after 1947 and history assumes the form a of a story in this book. It is not everyday that you want a voluminous history book to never end. I wonder why Indian history post independence is not taught in schools. In my opinion, this book is a must read for anyone wishing to know about India's modern and contemporary hi...

one of the best books in market to get a knowledge about the events that happened after the independence in a very lucid and thought provoking manner! one must go for it, if he/she loves history/politics. Book of the Millennium. Guha at his best!

Starting with the packing of the product and it's delivery no one can beat Flipkart.
Content of the book is wide and it covers each and every aspect in detail. Yes the size of book is quite thick, but quality of words and content is up to the mark.
It's a must read book for everyone to know about our country.

Book is in its best condition, a well picturized book with many in between pages illustrations of post independence original pics. The book is quite big or you can say much longer in terms of pages, a challenging read it will be. happy to shop with flipkart, the guy delivered this while it was raining outside, dedication level superb. got this at discount price at ₹428, value shopping

Guha has done extensive research in order to write this book. The book is one of the most comprehensive one and traces a history and...

As the author himself notes, India is an experiment in democracy. That so since nobody has embarked on such an notion of a nation without a common feeling of nation-state like Europe with so many diversities. But yet we are still together and united. The turmoils and challenges after independence has been described in great detail and it is a wonderful read.

But caution to those, who suggest this book to cover the topic of " Post-Independence consolidation of India" for the UPSC exam. This ...

best book

Guys I saved this book in my wishlist a few days back, the price was rs. 498 but i bought it for rs. 159 on the first day of big billion days offer, wait for the price drop if you don't want it right away. Anyway i just started reading it, as a book lover I can tell this book is very informative. If you really want to know about our political history, this book is your Bible. However I am not suggesting this book as a Civil Service material. For UPSC you better go with the suggestions of topp...
