India is on track to become one of the world’s three largest economies within a generation and is projected to surpass China as the most populous nation. Simultaneously, India’s developing nuclear deterrent will achieve intercontinental range and possess air, sea, and land capabilities. The complex relationship with its nuclear-armed neighbor, Pakistan, holds the potential for significant global conflict. Furthermore, the influx of graduates from regions like Gujarat into service industries suggests a shifting economic landscape. Regardless of perspective, India’s trajectory is of global importance. In “In Spite of the Gods,” Edward Luce, a highly regarded journalist, examines the forces shaping this emerging nation. This insightful book cuts through prevailing perceptions to offer a comprehensive look at a society grappling with modernization. Drawing on extensive historical research, existing scholarship, and privileged access as the South Asia correspondent for the FT, this work promises to captivate and inform, standing as a definitive resource on India for years to come.
