Index.

As a $3-trillion economy, India is on her way to becoming an economic superpower. Since 2011, however, there has been a marked retreat in the high growth performance of the previous two decades. What happened to the promise? A meticulously researched work that stands at the intersection of economics, political philosophy and public administration. This highly readable book lays out the art and the science of the policymaking that are needed, from the high ideas to the gritty practicalities that go into building the Republic.
