Description About the book : In this book, the authors have laid bare the facts that dismantle the myth and propaganda surrounding England’s so-called Industrial Revolution. It becomes evident that what is glorified as a revolution was, in truth, a crude imitation of technologies and sciences borrowed from India and other nations, alongside the ruthless extraction of their wealth and resources. It was through this plunder and replication that England managed to lift itself from destitution and decay. The so-called ‘prosperity’ that followed was not born of innovation or industriousness, but built squarely upon the, plunder and robbery of other nations. Prof. Kedia & Prof. A. Sinha explain the strategy and methods employed by the British in India in impoverishing Bharat. The book delves into how the various sectors like agriculture, industry and a thriving trading business were destroyed by the British. First published in 1987. It was re-published by Samvit Prakashan in 2025. Authors : Prof. Kusumlata Kedia , Prof Aruna Sinha ; ISBN : 978-81-965393-1-3 ; Publishers : Samvit Prakashan and Media ; Paperback ; Pages :268
