Description

"The first part of this history traces the evolution of India before contact with modern Europe was established in sixteenth century. Professor Thapar's account of the development of India's social and economic structure is arranged within a framework of the principal political and dynastic events. Her narrative covers some 2500 years of India's history, from the establishment of Aryan culture in about 1000 B.C. to the coming of the Mughals in A.D. 1526 and the first appearance of European trading companies. In particular she deals interestingly with the many manifestations of Indian culture, as seen in religion, art and literature, in ideas and institutions."
