Everybody Loves a Good Drought by Palagummi Sainath, P. Sainath

5.0

It's impossible to "review" a book as seminal to Indian journalism and sociology as this. It shattered preconceptions about development, revealed the face of rural India and is essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand why India's success stories mean little to the majority of the country. The sad part is that little seems to have changed in the 20-odd years since the publication of this book.
