Summary
Covid-19 has given renewed and urgent attention to the idea of a pandemic as a devastating and recurrent global phenomenon. Today the term is freely and widely used - but, in reality, it has a long and contested history, centering in particular on South Asia. 'Pandemic India' is an innovative and wide-ranging enquiry into the emergence of the pandemic idea and the changing meaning of pandemics, exploring the pivotal role played by - or assigned to - India over the past 200 years.--, Provided by publisher
