India's future depends not only on economic growth, but also on reform and innovation. In this fascinating look at the emerging economic giant, Nandan Nilekani, co-founder of Infosys, a global leader in information technology, charts the ideas that are crucial to India's current infrastructure revolution and quest for universal literacy, urbanization, and unification. He argues that only a safety net of ideas—from social security to public health to the environment—can transcend political agendas and safeguard India's economic future.

"Imagining India: The Idea of a Renewed Nation by Nandan Nilekani... is one of those rare books in which a businessman proves himself to be a capable expository writer, a balanced social and political commentator, and an innovative economic thinker."
