  <default_description> The world's most densely populated country, and the tiger's last remaining natural habitat, India is a land of contradictions. In this visually stunning book, photographer Olivier F&#246;llmi captures this land where tradition and modernity coexist-the India of the cell phone and the sacred cow. F&#246;llmi looks beyond the commotion and sensory overload of the Indian street to examine deeper truths about the people and their culture. His photographs convey serenity and stillness, expressing a philosophy and an approach to life radically different from the West's.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;This award-winning photographer's work includes portraits of people of all classes-farmers and potters, dancers and musicians, parents and children-and probes as well human interactions with animals including cows, monkeys, and elephants. Never does he portray his subjects as exotic objects; rather, his realistic, moving images pay tribute to his subjects' essential dignity and profound humanity.  </default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[When people think of India, often the abject poverty and desperate lives of its masses come to mind. Yet, India and its people also possess incredible beauty and a rich, complex melting pot of cultures. Olivier Follmi gives this &quot;other face&quot; of India its due. Follmi's photography captures ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/67962496">more...</a>]]></body>
