'This clearly written and daringly innovative volume accentuates the international aspects of South Asian history. It provides an up-to-date introduction to South Asia and its historiography within the important frame of a global context. By focusing on the subcontinent as part of Indian Ocean and wider systems, it shows how regional and global forces helped to shape the history of South Asia. Mann's nuanced, thematic approach helps students and scholars appreciate a fresh view of South Asian social history.' Douglas T. McGetchin, Florida Atlantic University
