About
This new edition of Burton Steins classic A History of India builds on the success of the original to provide an updated narrative of the development of Indian society, culture, and politics from 7000 BC to the present. The book offers a comprehensive account of Indian history. It also links contemporary issues - including poverty, religious nationalism, and the role of women - to India's rich and varied history and explores the tensions throughout Indian history between local communities and state, cultures and politics, and the country and the outside world.
