India, Modernity and the Great Divergence is an original and
pioneering book about India's transition towards modernity and the
rise of the West. The work examines global entanglements alongside
the internal dynamics of 17th to 19th century Mysore and Gujarat in
comparison to other regions of Afro-Eurasia. It is an
interdisciplinary survey that enriches our historical understanding
of South Asia, ranging across the fascinating and intertwined
worlds of modernizing rulers, wealthy merchants, curious scholars,
utopian poets, industrious peasants and skilled artisans. Bringing
together socio-economic and political structures, warfare,
techno-scientific innovations, knowledge production and transfer of
ideas, this book forces us to rethink the reasons behind the
emergence of the modern world.
