India after Gandhi
I have a new beloved book to recommend "India after Gandhi:The History of the World's Largest Democracy" (tip of the hat goes to various folks on Silk, who's recommendation made me go read this book)
For a while, I've been ranting and raving about a lack of contemporary Indian history. This book does a lot of it. Not enough for the last decade, but I can put that down to being around in those years. But if you haven't read it and are remotely interested in India, do yourself a favour. Get it now.
