the title and the content of the book are not made for each other. sadly,only the first chapter did a bit of justice to the title as such. for all it was worth,the author's perspective is quite praiseworthy. the initial chapter aids the reader in developing a different view about the world history especially that of eurocentrism from a different angle. the subsequent chapters proved to be a disappointment by deviating from what the book was supposedly to be about.
