"This book is written in simple language and is therefore useful for lay readers in addition to the specialists ... the book is a work of outstanding scholarship." Social Action
"This important new book from a distinguished Indian sociologist seeks to grapple with questions of ethnicity and nationality through a detailed exercise of conceptual clarification. An impressively vast historical and comparative canvas forms the background and basis of this attempt at sweeping away the dusty cobwebs of historical and sociological scholarship, and disentangling the often confused discourse around these concepts." Economic and Political Weekly
"There is considerable wisdom in Oommen's argument ... illustrated
with a wide range of examples." American Journal of
Sociology
