A set of elegant manifestos on some of the most pressing issues of our time, each adopting a position unmoored from conventional schools, genealogies and traditions of thought, so as to bring the world itself to light in all its heterogeneous reality. -- Faisal Devji, Reader in Modern South Asian History, University of Oxford
