Synopsis

The relationship between technology and colonialism in British India is the focus of this book. Three important areas are examined: the practices shaping and constraining technology transfer and the growth of education in the fields of technology and engineering; the emerging patterns in transportation and communication; and the struggle for technological sovereignty before India achieved political independence in 1947.

Presenting new research in these areas, the book relates the history of technology in India to issues of economic relations and culture.
