History of Ancient India: Portraits of a Nation

Portraits of a nation — history of ancient India” is a timely book. Recent archaeological findings, scientific analysis and reconstruction of the movements of ancient people using DNA studies have shown that the assumptions on which ancient India and her civilization were studied in school textbooks for several decades were incorrect. Kamlesh kapur’s pioneering book brings together latest scholarly findings to provide a rational understanding of Indian civilization. I recommend it strongly for use in schools and for self-study.
