Danino’s thought-provoking work explores questions of Indian identity and examines whether Indian civilization can be compared to a thousand-branched tree, discussing its achievements and global impact. French-born author Michel Danino, who has lived in India for over three decades, argues that Indian culture cannot be viewed as a relic of the past, but rather remains a dynamic force that defines India's identity and addresses today's global challenges. These are the forces and the present that shape the lives of India today, the very context of the lives of our two facilitators. You are certain to walk away from this book with a fresh perspective of India and its role in the world today.
