Why does the stock exchange dip during a lunar eclipse? Why don’t cars with safety featureslead to fewer injuries? Why did Nehru ignore the Chinese threat in the lead-up to the 1962 war?Why is it that a stranger might risk his life to save yours on one day, and a street full of passersbymight casually watch you bleed to death on another? In pithy, sparkling, bite-sized chapters, economists VivekDehejia and Rupa Subramanya tackle these seeming mysteries and unearth the real reasonswhy ‘we are like this only’. The answers are entertaining and surprising at every turn, and reveal a picture of modern Indiaas never seen before.REVIE WS‘Succinctly explains Indian reality in an unconventional manner.
