Description

India is a land of discoveries and inventions. Yet not many know that some of the world's biggest breakthroughs in science, medicine, mathematics, astronomy, metallurgy and technology have their roots in the subcontinent. Engaging and authoritative, Incredible Indian Inventions explores nine trailblazing Indian inventions which have left an indelible mark on human civilisation ? from pioneering cataract surgery, reconstructive plastic surgery and smallpox inoculation to advanced Wootz steel metallurgy and groundbreaking research on mesons to the development of radio communication, in vitro fertilization (IVF), the concept of zero and the global practice of shampooing. Blending captivating storytelling with insightful history, the book questions the dominant notion that only the West can produce breakthrough inventions and celebrates India's rich heritage of innovation.

'Sajjan Yadav has made me proud of India's contribution to the advancement of human knowledge and civilisation.'

GULZAR
'A thought-provoking contribution by Sajjan Yadav, the book is an excellent addition to every bookshelf.'

Akshat Gupta, best-selling author, writer and lyricist
'This book made me proud to be Indian – and a little angry that no one told me these stories sooner ... This isn't history tucked away in a textbook; it's India's untold legacy, finally told the way it deserves to be. I would want every Indian to read this. And honestly, I would want the rest of the world to read it too.'

Sonu Sood - actor, and author of 'I Am No Messiah'
'Well-researched and insightfully narrated.'

Shashank Shah, best-selling author and global thought leader
'A reminder that breakthrough ideas can emerge from any corner of society.'
