Following the success of the first edition of Geography of India, this significantly revised and updated edition is being brought out to keep up with advances in the field.
The book explores the geographical factors that underlie the physical, economic, cultural, and political patterns of India’s vast and diverse landscapes. Discussion is focused on contemporary India’s physical environment, historical setting, population problems, mineral and industrial resources, urbanization, ethnic distributions, cultural diversity, and regional divisions.
This popular book is intended to be not just a geography text but a general reader too. It will be useful for general courses in South Asian Studies and for those interested in India’s current affairs.
