  <abstract>In this collection of essays, Nobel laureate Amartya Sen examines social justice, identity, deprivation, inequalities, gender politics, education, the media, and welfare. He argues passionately that public policy should swing sharply towards the poor, the illiterate, and those suffering from ill health and malnourishment, connecting history, culture, and politics to understand India's challenges.</abstract>
