About the Book

The book is a collection of Rajiv Kumar’s widely read and appreciated columns in some of India’s leading newspapers over the last two years. The volume includes a specially written Introduction that provides a sharp and candid insight into multiple policy failures of the UPA II government and lays out the reform agenda for the incoming BJP government. The articles provide an incisive analysis of India’s turbulent economic journey over the last three years as the country lost both its policy direction and economic momentum. The short essays provide a rare ringside view of policy making and all its frailties from an author who has established himself as one of the most widely read columnists in India.

About the Author :
Rajiv Kumar , one of India's most recognised economists, regularly advises the government on policy issues. He is India's leading public intellectual whose widely read columns in major Indian newspapers offer candid and sharp insights into India's evolving political economy. They are also read by leading policy makers. He brings to his writings his vast and varied experience having worked in the Indian government as head of an economic policy think tank; in the ADB in Manila; and in India's two largest national apex business associations. He has a DPhil in Economics from Oxford, UK and PhD from Lucknow University, India.

For over a decade now, Rajiv Kumar has been educating a nation.
