Reviews

Meticulous scholarship and innovative research make this a highly original contribution to understanding the historical significance of American “soft power” in South Asia. By foregrounding the seminal role of transnational agency and Americanization on India and Indians, the book radically reconfigures the story of colonial India and nationalist opposition. * David Arnold, Professor Emeritus, University of Warwick, UK *
