Thanks, Jim, this sounds like a great book. You send up a lot of good books. 
I'm sure I can't read them all, nor can I validate this one, but it's good 
to know that they will be up there when I am able to grab them. I will look 
for this one when it gets added to the collection and download a copy.

Keep on keeping on.

Evan

  Submitted for validation:

  Mira Kamdar
  Planet India: How the Fastest-Growing Democracy Is Transforming America 
and the World
  easy validation:
  -carefully spell checked
  -headers removed
  -blank pages labeled and numbered
  -optional hyphens removed

  If you agree that it is impossible to understand America's future without 
engaging with what is happening in the rest of the world, I urge you to read 
Planet India. Interviewing a wide range of people, from Bollywood movie 
producers to indebted farmers committing suicide to tea merchants and U.S. 
software engineers working in India, Mira gives the flavor of India today, 
tells how it got there, and gives a sense of where it is going along with 
what its decisions will mean for the entire planet.
  Mira is not afraid to break taboos, and she addresses both the tremendous 
optimism and potential in India as well as the Herculean challenges that the 
country faces. In Planet India, you'll get the human side of the story as 
well as that of the geo-political and economic implications of what is going 
on in India.
