| General note | India and Her Futures is a collection of essays by one of India's most prolific public intellectuals, Gopalkrishna Gandhi.<br/><br/>As a former public servant, diplomat and scholar, his contribution to thinking about South Asian and world history is a debt many owe him. Reflecting on a wide canvas, including India's culture, diversity and the richness of its literary and intellectual history, Gandhi has been a committed loyalist of the essay as a form of expression through decades of writing for news dailies and monthly magazines. These curated essays from his larger oeuvre have allowed him the precision of form to express the urgency and vitality of its varied subjects.<br/><br/>Written with unparalleled fluency and clarity of expression, here are meditations on foreign policy and India's place in the world, burning domestic political and social issues, biographical homages, chronicles on the making and unmaking of India, reflections on Indians who birthed the modern democratic republic, fundamental ideas of India and appraisals of key public institutions of India. Here is a once-in-a-generation writer, a uniquely gifted voice one looks to and will continue to consult to make sense of the India we have come to inhabit and an India to come. |
