Kosambis scholarship in the fields of mathematics, historiography, numismatics and statistics caused ripples across the world. From his pioneering translations of Bhartrihari to his revolutionary reinterpretations of Indian history in landmark books, the intellectual heft and range of Kosambis mind was truly astounding. Sixty years after his passing, however, he is quoted more often than he is read and praised more often than he is analysed—his legacy expunged from administrative records and fading from public memory. Ram Ramaswamys definitive biography of Kosambi seeks to correct this lapse. Drawing from letters and journal entries, family accounts and unprecedented archival material, he presents before us a man of multitudes—fearless and independent on the one hand, plagued by a restless curiosity on the other. D.D. Kosambi: One Life, Many Worlds not only mines the incandescent, if troubled, mind of a genius, whose pursuits were informed by a family and a nation of towering personalities, but also revives an era of fascinating political, scientific and historiographical transformation in the subcontinent....
