Outline of my next book INDIAN PHILANTHROPY: A PORTRAIT FROM EARLIEST TIMES TO THE PRESENT


I provide some basic information below.

All reactions, responses, criticisms and suggestions are welcome!

Several of the interviews have already taken place; others are proceeding apace...

Many thanks for any help that you can give me: a book may have only one author's name on it, but s/he needs the support of many people for that book to be any good!
