When P.V. Narasimha Rao became the unlikely prime minister of India in 1991, he inherited a nation adrift. Despite little support, he reinvented his country, unleashing a market revolution that rivaled the one set in motion by Deng Xiaoping a dozen years before. Relying on Rao's private papers and over a hundred interviews, this biography is a must-read for anyone interested in the transformation of India.
