Just 60 years after winning independence from British rule, India’s economy is booming and the nation is fast becoming
a leading global power. With a population of a billion people, India’s society is as varied as its awe-inspiring landscape.
Home to a dizzying array of languages, ethnic groups, beliefs, and lifestyles, India can seem overwhelming in its
complexity. India takes the lid off this cultural melting pot, showing how past events have shaped this diverse
but unified nation, where tradition and modernity successfully coexist. Through stunning photography and insightful
text, India offers an eye-opening, thought-provoking, and authoritative visual guide to one of the world’s most
exciting and vibrant nations.
