India-US Relations: Addressing the Challenges of the 21st Century Publisher: Magnum Books The rhetoric from two noisy democracies may make it appear that the interests of India and the United States are poles apart on many issues. However, if the outside layers comprising ideological and populist pronouncements are peeled aside, it is apparent that while there would be inevitable differences in approach, there is a convergence on core values, concerns and interests. At the same time, the hindrances and obstacles that come in the way of a working relationship cannot be simply wished away. A purposeful and forward looking dialogue is one of the necessary steps required to take the Partnership to a higher plane. ISBN 81-87363-95-9, Price: ₹ 595 Cherian Samuel , N. S. Sisodia , Peter R.
