I believe that only people with fair amount of English education have watched his famous Oxford debate. Amongst them most were Indians for obvious reasons. And amongst them I'm pretty confident that most people knew the basic information behind his speech. By that, I mean people knew everything but the statistics and numbers. So, one can actually make a reasonable inference that most people who watched his debate video were merely reminded of something that they don't tune into on a daily basis rather than hearing something for the first time. A sense of patriotism alongside a glimpse of relief from the everlasting need of approval from the "white folk". For a guy who is very secure about his patriotism towards his country, I would only read his book for the colourful numbers. Also, a good question to Dr. Tharoor would be, does this book talk about the long term effects of British colonialism on the Indian mind? If no, is he planning on writing anything/speaking about the effects of colonialism on the minds of various sects of the Indian society after 70 years of independence. Also, this comment doesn't reflect my opinions about Dr. Tharoor but rather an interesting critique. On the contrary, I do believe Dr. Tharoor is an excellent politician and an even better orator.

Anirudh Rajagopal I read a review of the book on Snapdeal, it was implicitly mentioned that he has provided the reader with enough information which enables one to understand how the Indian polity is just a reminder of the British raj and also why it seems to not work for the people but for itself. I'm sure more of that can be found in the book. Though I would also like a book from Mr Tharoor about the implications of the colonialism that is still present in different shapes and forms among the Indians and how it influenced their thinking of what India is?

I am in 9th standard but i am very interested in Colonial history of India, and i think to buy this book but the only problem is that Mr. Tharoor wrote this book so i would have to sit with a dictionary by my side to read this book. I am a very big fan of Mr. Tharoor. 🙂

Our history textbooks never gave this kind of information ever! Almost every chapter was overshadowed by Gandhiji and Nehru. The tenth standard board exams had around 10 frequently asked long answer questions, 2 of which would be asked for 10 marks each and half of them were based on Gandhiji's actions. The other half were about useless episodes from European countries. Our history books were definitely manipulated by the political party in power at that point of time because they had worked in alliance with the British and they tried to be as gentle as possible to British in those textbooks and tried to portray their own party workers as some sort of superheroes who single handedly overthrew the British rule, whereas in reality we didn't even get to learn about the real heroes. I'm sure that if the real history is printed in those books some day, Indians all over the world would have tears in their eyes.

Every era of history has pros and cons. Yes colonial rule decimated India's wealth but British rule also brought some positive things such as: Concept of a united India as we know today. English education. Railroads. Western medicine. Abolishment of sati. English laws and democratic institutions. All of which we benefit from today. On the contrary what good did Mughal rule do for the common man? Yes India was probably the richest country under the mughals. But all that wealth was concentrated in the hands of the ruling elite.

Realistically, unless India is strong, all past injustice is just that, past....

Indirectly he is saying Mughal and muslims were way way way better than English. I must say one more thing Jinnah was a peaceful man, he created Pakistan in order to have peace in the region, not a perpetual war. We people of Pakistan accepts reality of India but It is India that created hurdles. 1- In 1947 Hayadrabad was given to India because people of Hyderabad was with India but Prince decided in favour of Pakistan. In Kahsmir people were with Pakistan Prince decided in favour of India 2- I'm 1971 Indian PM Indra Gandhi said " hum neh Muslmano se 1000 saal ki Ghulami Ka badlaa le leya" and later PM Modi said in Bangladesh that India made Mukti Bahni 3- Indian PM Modi said that people of Baluchistan thanked him, he openly confess that India is involved in Baluchistan. A serving India Navy officer was caught in Baluchistan with a full spy network. so it is India that has always created hurdles. he should write a book on History of IndoPak also.

Shashi, don't give some stupid reason that we missed the bus .Your party was busy putting the opposition leaders behind the bars by declaring Emergency in 1976. Shashi tharoor you are good orator but I am unable understand the basic Maths, hope you will help me . During your patty's tenure from 2004 to 2014, The RBI report says the advances to Industrial sector was Rs 18 lakh crores and the same was Rs 52 lakh crores by 2014.Where did the 34 lakh crores vanish. Was the economy tripled,was the people were having 2 jobs at a time? Since you are very close to P Chidambaram ascertain to whom the money was distributed with in 6 years,now you are grumbling for the high speed train to be laid at 1 lakh crore with soft loan and technology from Japan.
