Description
This book offers a compelling exploration into the untold history and social dynamics of Indian engineers. Through a series of ten insightful essays, it brings together the perspectives of social scientists and historians from India, the United States, and France. Readers are taken on a journey from the colonial era to the modern day, delving into debates like the Howrah Bridge construction, the migration of Indian engineers to American universities post-Independence, the impact of reservation policies on IIT placements, and the burgeoning coaching culture in Kota. Accompanied by an in-depth introduction that surveys existing scholarship and traces the pivotal shifts in the engineering profession since the 1850s, this book is an essential read for those eager to understand the forces shaping India's engineering landscape.
