Synopsis It is a book on India with a difference. It covers different aspects of life in India, without any political pre’udice, but with one main purpose to build a stronger and greater INDIA. It is dedicated to the "Makers of Modern India" who are working to make the 2151 century. Rightly the contributors and the editors share the goal—as defined by Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the Prime Minister of India – to achieve Peace, Progress and Happiness for the entire humanity in the new millennium. This volume is a specially commissioned book on India with an aim to introduce the contemporary India to the world. It includes nineteen papers written by some of the experts working in the fields of Psychology, Political Science, Economics, History, Geography, Management, Science, Sociology, English Education and Administration. It is an authentic, non-political, non-sectarian and informative book about the people of India, their struggle to attain freedom and to develop as a secular and democratic nation, their experience in modernization, planning, education and social change; with glimpses about the youth, women, management concepts and arts. The major features of this volume are: The independence of the editor and their collaborators in terms of political sectarian bias. Their experience in academic and scientific communication in the fields of their concern. To be non-pedantic but certainly objective, systematic and direct in their presentations. To share an ambition to reach out to the curious and serious reader both specializing in India and searching out to the present India without any handicap or reluctance. Probably the editors and the publishers too have a stake to print it at their earliest to that it retains its freshness.
