Description

The Making of Modern India is a first of its kind attempt to provide a well-a rounded historical account of the processes of the making of Modern India & the freedom struggle, rooted in the making of the Modern World.

During her own Civil Services preparation✍, the author realised how these different themes of Modern India and Modern World history were scattered in different books. This inspired her to come up with a compilation where all these themes and processes of ‘Modern’ history can be contained in a single book with brevity and simplicity of understanding of a student.

Weaving in diverse themes such as colonialism & imperialism, the Industrial Revolution, the French Revolution, the world wars, Great Depression with different strands of Indian freedom struggle this compilation focuses to explore the complicated pattern of shifts & continuities of the Indian freedom struggle in a simple & lucid manner.

The reader shall not just be able to place & compare these events in a timeline, but also understand how the two were cross-linked, and yet a part of the universal phenomenon of colonialism & nationalism unleashed by the ‘modern’ world. This book has been written & compiled for competitive examinees, Civil Services aspirants, and general readers who are searching for a study of the past to address the concerns of the present.
