Introduction ISIN: 978-06-7008-812-6 Genre: Non fiction Publishers : Random House Price: Rs. 699/- (I received the book for review from the publisher ) Our times are characterized not by estranged Superpowers building formidable arsenals but by engaged societies building a robust global economy. Emerging countries are redefining the geo-economic (and geopolitical) dynamic; in the new world order, a soaring GDP and a booming population are the true indicators of a nation's strength.
