Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""Modern India"" by William Eleroy Curtis is a comprehensive book that provides an in-depth analysis of India's history, culture, politics, economy, and social issues. The book covers various aspects of India's modernization and development, including its struggle for independence, post-independence political and economic developments, and contemporary issues such as globalization, social inequality, and environmental challenges. The author also delves into India's diverse cultural heritage, including its art, literature, religion, and philosophy. Through the use of statistics, maps, and illustrations, the book presents a vivid picture of India's growth and development over the years. It is an ideal resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of modern India.The ancient Mogul Empire embraced almost as much of India as is controlled by the British today, and extended westward into Europe as far as Moscow and Constantinople. It was founded by a young warrior known as Timour the Tartar, or Tamerlane, as he is more frequently called in historical works. He was a native of Kesh, a small town fifty miles south of Samarkand, the capital of Bokhara, which was known as Tartary in those days. This young man conquered more nations, ruled over a wider territory and a larger number of people submitted to his authority than to any other man who ever lived, before or since.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
