About the Author<\/h3>\n

Karolina Goswami comes from the south eastern region of Poland. She holds a master\u2019s degree from the Rzesz\u00f3w University of Technology and is a production engineer by training. Driven by her passion to provide a broader perspective to the sides of India that are not fully known or understood, Karolina Goswami is known for creating data-driven non-political content (documentary films, short videos) which ignites independent thinking and logical reasoning. Her well-researched short videos and documentary films are regularly uploaded on the Social media Channel \u2013 India In Details. \u2018India In Details\u2019 has nearly 400,000 subscribers on YouTube and more than 500,000 followers on Facebook, as of October 2019. In her journey as a filmmaker, Karolina Goswami has delivered nearly 100 episodes on a variety of subjects related to India and Indians. Cumulatively, her episodes have had more than 100 million views on various social media platforms. From India\u2019s premier academic institution \u2013 IIT Kharagpur, to the country\u2019s tourism, healthcare, economy, environment and its cultural and spiritual heritage, her episodes have covered a very wide spectrum. She has also highlighted the success stories of overseas Indians and the challenges faced by them. In order to build a more accurate perception of India in the country of her birth, Karolina Goswami has started a painstaking and mammoth task of visiting the primary schools, secondary schools and universities in Poland to give lectures or speeches on India. These workshops are helping the next Polish generation to become more informed, more accepting and better prepared to live in an increasing globalised world \u2013 in which India is expected to play a key role.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

About the Book<\/h3>\n

A young Polish woman embarks on a tour of India and falls in love with the country. What does she find? She finds that India is quite different from the way it is commonly perceived outside its borders. Isn\u2019t it reckless to restrict India to common media stereotypes like cow, caste, rapes and slums without carefully examining and studying its lesser-known sides and its complex and delicate layers of reality? In an increasingly globalised and a data-driven world, isn\u2019t it more sensible to have a broader evidence-based global perspective instead of jumping to reckless and oversimplified conclusions? Without neglecting India\u2019s lesser-understood sides, from its economy to the environment, from its weaknesses to its strengths, from its spirituality to its unutilised soft power, as well as its culture, tourism and its upcoming challenges, Karolina Goswami has carefully attempted to diagnose India\u2019s problems and seek their solutions. With the help of verifiable data, researches and logic, Karolina\u2019s story of India may sound scholarly but can be easily grasped. Discovering India, therefore, is a handy, quick-glance reference source of information on India, for an insider as well as an outsider, for an average Indian who must know about India\u2019s strengths and shortcomings, for the Indian diaspora who would like to keep themselves abreast, and for non-Indians who want to dig India deeper, beneath its stereotyped surface. It is a book that should be in the hands of everyone interested in India.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":11060,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[69,71,83],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-11059","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-new-arrivals","product_cat-non-fiction","product_cat-philosophy-indology","pa_book-author-karolina-goswami","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/11059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11059"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11060"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=11059"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=11059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
