Indian Instincts is a seminal and deeply philosophical work, presented tactfully with entertaining and memorable instances. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to know what makes an Indian. The vivid and insightful examples make us reflect: Are we willingly entrapped in the institutions of our own making? Have these institutions-the government, corporations, religion-become sources of the problem in India, increasing economic inequality?
This book, a collection of fifteen powerful essays that argue for greater equality and opportunity in contemporary India, holds up a mirror to what we Indians have become.  aEquality921316  aLiberty921317  aCHATTERJI (Miniya)920303  2ddccBK  c221525d221525  00102ddc40708PSaALbALd2022-02-16eNavaKarnataka Publications Pvt.Ltdg319.20l0o305.0954 CHAIp075457r2022-02-16 00:00:00v399.00w2022-02-16yBK
