Item description from seller

About the Book: India: Brief History of a Civilization This book presents a comprehensive overview of 5000 years of Indian history. Balancing detail and brevity, it takes the reader from the ancient past to the near present: the very beginnings in Mohenjo-daro and Harappa; the Vedic age; the rise of Magadha; the Classical Age; the Mughals; the British rule; and the formation of the nation-states and socio-political developments post independence. Locating the deep past living on in the everyday present, this volume is an important resource to understand contemporary events. Trautmann also gives a glimpse into the social and intellectual history of Indian Civilization. This edition includes a postscript, that highlights major milestones in Indian historiography, and a chronology of events. About the Author: Thomas R. Trautmann Thomas R. Trautmann is Professor of History and Anthropology at the University of Michigan. Reviews '.a lucid, compelling, and yet sophisticated introductory text.'- Mrinalini Sinha, University of Michigan 'T.R. Trautmann is one of the few scholars qualified to speak with authority on the entire span of Indian civilization.'- Sumit Guha, Rutgers University '.written with a vision and elegance that are the hallmark of Professor Trautmann's scholarship.'- A. Azfar Moin, Southern Methodist University.
