Paperback. Zustand: Fair. In the 21st century every sixth human being will be Indian. India is very close to becoming the second largest consumer market in the world, with a buying middle class numbering over half a billion.It is in the top ten in overall GNP. Yet at least 200 million Indians remain desperately poor. Illiteracy rates are high. Communal violence is widespread; corruption endemic. Brides are still tortured and burnt for dowries; the caste system has lost little of its power and none of its brutality.How are we to make sense of these two, apparently contradictory, pictures of India today? And how can we overcome the many misconceptions about India that are fed by the stereotypes created by foreigners and the myths about themselves projected by Indians? In Being Indian, Pavan Varma, whom the Guardian has called 'one of the country's most perceptive writers', demolishes the myths and generalisations as he turns his sharply observant gaze on his fellow countrymen to examine what really makes Indians tick and what they have to offer the world in the 21st century.

Zustand: Very Good. : En el siglo XXI, uno de cada seis seres humanos será indio. La India está muy cerca de convertirse en el segundo mercado de consumo más grande del mundo, con una clase media compradora de más de quinientos millones de personas. La economía india ya es la cuarta más grande en términos de paridad de poder adquisitivo. Se encuentra entre los diez primeros en cuanto al PNB general. Sin embargo, al menos 200 millones de indios siguen siendo desesperadamente pobres. Las tasas de analfabetismo son altas. La violencia comunitaria está muy extendida; la corrupción es endémica. Las novias siguen siendo torturadas y quemadas por las dotes; el infanticidio femenino es común. El sistema de castas ha perdido poco de su poder y nada de su brutalidad. ¿Cómo debemos dar sentido a estas imágenes aparentemente contradictorias de la India actual? ¿Y cómo podemos superar las muchas ideas falsas sobre la India que son alimentadas por los estereotipos occidentales y los propios mitos de los indios sobre sí mismos? Pavan Varma dirige una mirada agudamente observadora a sus compatriotas para examinar lo que realmente hace funcionar a los indios.
