Computing in the Age of Decolonization: India's Lost Technological Revolution

By Dwaipayan Banerjee (Princeton University Press, 2026). In this book, Banerjee examines India's pursuit of technological self-sufficiency, and the global forces that prevailed against this vision. He describes why the nation is "the world's leading provider of inexpensive outsourcing and offshoring services, yet enjoys minimal benefits from more profitable advances in research, manufacturing, and development."
