Book excerpt: "Indian nationalists have a great project in hand. Their work-in-progress is the recovery of India's proud past and it's rightful place at the centre of human civilization. In pursuit of this, history must be rewritten regardless of the facts and they will make sure the world acknowledges India's pre-eminence by direct action at home and abroad." "Claiming to take a leaf out of the Islamic book, they are no longer prepared to suffer insult, denigration or offence, past and present, in silence. And offence is found everywhere - in art galleries, schools and universities, books, films, music and online. Hindu nationalists have targeted all these, attacking art galleries and driving artists into exile, tearing down posters they consider obscene, demanding bans on books that don't conform to their version of history, vandalizing research institutes and threatening its academics, forcing film studios to change scripts or musicians to alter lyrics, destroying mosques and abusing Muslims. In the process,they have plunged India into chaos and alienated many sectors of this multicultural society. Most seriously, they threaten the secular India of its founding fathers." --Book Jacket.
