Mahatma on the Pitch: Gandhi & Cricket in India

]]> By Bandyopadhyay, Kaushik.
New Delhi Rupa Publication India Pvt, Ltd 2017 .
184 , How the most important man of our national movement viewed the most important sport in our country. Did Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi ever play cricket? Did cricket ever figure in the Gandhian world of thought? What were the views of the most important man in the history of India’s freedom struggle on the game that dominates Indian national consciousness in the twenty-first century? Were there any connections between Gandhi and cricket during the high tide of national movement? Did Gandhi or his ideas make any impact on the game? Did he ever oppose the cause of cricket? Did cricket ever invoke Gandhi after his death? These questions seem as remote as Gandhi’s tryst with cricket! Mahatma on the Pitch tries to find answers to these apparently quirky questions by exploring the untold relationship between two of the most enduring phenomena of modern India: Mahatma Gandhi, arguably the greatest Indian icon of the twentieth century and Indian cricket, probably the most assertive Indian national emblem in the twenty-first-century world. 978-81-291-4885-8

Where China Meets India: Burma and the new crossroads of Asia

]]> By Myint-U, Thant.
London Faber and Faber Ltd. 2012 .
366 , Where China Meets India: Burma and the New Crossroads of Asia is an interesting read about a country that is located between two upcoming super powers, namely India and China. The author of the book looks back in time and observes that India and China have always been walled off from each other. However, in the last few years, with jungles being cut down, this barrier is slowly breaking. This means that the two countries are now exposed to each other. Thant Myint-U says that Myanmar is strategically located. He then describes the country of his ancestry, from political, ethnic, military and trade perspectives. India and Myanmar have a lot of common history, which links them both culturally and educationally. However, India's influence has been decreasing in the last few years, whereas China's has been growing. China hopes to use Myanmar's ports for its own trade. Hence, developing a good and steady relationship with Myanmar is now a high priority. However, the ripple effects of this is sure to alarm India. Though Myanmar has become democratic, its long battle history makes the country insecure. The author says that this impacts every decision that the country makes with regards to India or China 978-0-571-23964-1
