Review

`Vinay Bahl offers a wide and refreshing discussion of the trials of colonial capitalism and, most particularly, the national industrial bourgeoisie′s attempt to develop an industrial sector... Bahl′s book should be highly recommended for those interested in imperial history, in the dynamics of global capitalism and in South Asian History′ - Labour/Le Travail

`This really is a very good book indeed.... Bahl′s own work is a splendid synthesis of bottom-up and top-down forms of history, using the Tata Iron and Steel Company as her exemplar.... Bahl offers us her own social background but she has transcended it in a passionate and dispassionate work of labour history′ - Contemporary South Asia
