Product Description
Times Higher Education Supplement
"What impresses is Stein's ability to take the long view of Indian history and to develop his analysis across so many centuries and through such diverse material. It is also a mark of his achievement that his book stimulates discussion of matters that he has touched on only fleetingly himself, for it is an argument as much as an account of events."

The Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society
"A History of India is clearly superior to its predecessors...The fact that Stein was willing to put forward so many provocative formulations is itself a virtue. The text itself is likely to stimulate interesting discussions in classes, something that most predecessors did not even attempt to achieve.... in its paperback version this book might be seen by many teachers as the solution to their text dilemma."
