"A powerful and coherent interpretation of the grand sweep of
India's past ... It is a 'must read' for all serious students of
India regardless of their discipline and/or chronological focus."
History.
"What impresses is Stein's ability to take the long view of
Indian history and to develop his analysis across so many centuries
and through such diverse material. It is also a mark of his
achievement that his book stimulates discussion of matters that he
has touched on only fleetingly himself, for it is an argument as
much as an account of events." Times Higher Education
Supplement.
"A History of India is clearly superior to its predecessors ... The fact that Stein was willing to put forward so many provocative formulations is itself a virtue. The text itself is likely to stimulate interesting discussions in classes, something that most predecessors did not even attempt to achieve ... in its paperback version this book might be seen by many teachers as the solution to their text dilemma." The Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society.
