India is increasingly becoming a battleground for "text wars", as puritanical revisionists try to impose their nationalist agenda. In this lively collection, distinguished Indian and non-Indian contributors tackle the major questions of free expression, communication, censorship and social pressure, but also social and media responsibility. The book contains essays, poems, and a cartoon comic-strip, most of them originals written specially for this publication.
