### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read it if you are interested in India
*by P***T on September 2, 2015*

I am a German, who has to travel to India frequently for business. The book is really a collection of articles written by the author at different times, apparently updated from time to time. Hence, no need to read from cover to cover, just pick what seems interesting. One may agree or disagree with the author's point of view, but I feel most of them are argued with convincing logic, and in absolutely beautiful language! And still many articles show this "Indian-ness" which is so difficult for me to understand in educated Indians, even after many years of travel to India: This pride of being Indian (what is there to be proud of? If 15% of the world's population are in India, being Indian is not exactly exceptional - and in any way beyond ones control). This pride, if an "Indian" ( who has probably lived in the USA for most of his life and is a US citizen) is promoted to CEO of some large company. Again, with 15% of the wotld's population being Indians, these chances are nozt so small.... A country with some many contradictions: A while ago, I waited at some construction site. There was perfect 3G reception - and the construction workers ( with their families!) lived in tents, which would be unsuitable and illegal for an animal in Germany.... Also, these contradictions are described in some articles. One exception:I found his defence of 'democracy' in India poorly argued. There is no doubt, that some countries without Western style democracies, think about China or Vietnam, develop much faster. He does not explain, why the Indian regime is still better for the average Indian. All in all, a book for someone who has a good deal of interest in India.
