Summary
"In India Arriving, Rafiq Dossani gives us a unique and unflinching look at the people, history, and culture of an often romanticized but often misunderstood country. Chronicling this enigmatic country from its birth as an independent nation in 1947 to its emergence as the next global superpower, India Arriving shows us the real India, with all of its flaws and all of its beauty."--BOOK JACKET.
