Why Do Indians...?: A Contemporary Perspective On Inscrutable Indian Ways
The world relishes beef; Indians ban it. The world thinks Cricket is just a game; for Indians it is a religion. The world cannot comprehend arranged marriage; for Indians it is still a way of life. Ever wondered WHY? While interacting with curious non-indian friends, the author had to ponder about it. The result is five honestly humorous semi-fictional stories that you can relate to.

The author addresses casual questions asked by visiting foreign colleagues from the HQ during tea breaks, which the Indian counterparts answer in an equally casual manner. They are useful to keep the conversation going. Courtesy obliges them to show some curiosity about things Indian. They are least bothered about our preference for arranged marriages or our passionate commitment to cricket. The author has given his views dramatizing the conversations. The redeeming feature of the book is it is short ( a little over 120 pages) and can be completed in one sitting. The questions addressed may require greater research and elaborate treatment from different angles.
