Book Review - Alyssa Ayers, Our Time Has Come: How India is Making its Place in the World (New York: OUP, 2018)

The book under review is written by Alyssa Ayers who has been privy to the rise of India since liberalisation and opening up of the Indian economy. It is a well-written work consisting of eight chapters spread through three phases of ‘looking back’, ‘transition’, and ‘looking ahead.’ It encompasses interesting facets of how India has come out of a morass of abject poverty and crisis of balance of payments to usher into an era of confidence, economic growth, stability, investment destination, and prospects of being called upon to sit on the global ‘high table'.
