Overview
\"In the eighteenth century, India's share of the world economy was as large as Europe's. By 1947, after two centuries of British rule, it had decreased six-fold. Beyond conquest and deception, the Empire blew rebels from cannon, massacred unarmed protesters, entrenched institutionalised racism, and caused millions to die from starvation. British imperialism justified itself as enlightened despotism for the benefit of the governed, but Shashi Tharoor [refutes] this position, [believing that] every supposed imperial 'gift'--from the railways to the rule of law--was designed in Britain's interests alone\"--Back cover.
