Couverture du Amartya Sen: Wish a Day for a Week (ePUB)

In this sparkling, witty and impassioned essay delivered as the keynote lecture at the Jaipur Literature Festival 2014 Amartya Sen meets the Goddess of Medium Things who promises him seven wishes, one for each day of the week. As he spars with the goddess who is often bemused by his demands, Sen writes of the seven changes he thinks India needs most, from improving the teaching of humanities to abolishing Article 377. Humorous in tone, yet deeply serious in intent, A Wish a Day for a Week is a marvellous essay and an important blueprint for India s development from one of our great thinkers.
