Being Different offers crucial strategic perspectives for Indian civilization, a civilization that is only now emerging from centuries of oppression and slavery, but still has a long way to go before it can manifest its native genius in an unfettered, self-confident, and creative way, without either cringing in inferiority or imitation or rearing p in reaction and aggression. This book is a “must read” for those who care about India and its future.
