The Sceptical Patriot

A welcome addition to the India-themed books hitting the market. Sidin offers a different more-serious look into the common myths of ‘India facts' and yet sprinkles in enough of his typical humor to keep you going. A worthy read not only for anyone obsessed with forwarding those ‘India is always great' emails and Whatsapp messages but also for those who're tired of receiving those messages. But don't worry, it's not an India-bashing book either but be prepared for some truths. The last chapter offers plenty of lessons and we all will be better off if half of our countrymen heeded even half of those.
