A World Adrift invites you to navigate the swirling tides of our fractured era, where ancient doctrines collide with modern upheavals, and the old world order crumbles under the weight of ambiguity and yet-unformed ideological and conceptual mores and constructs. From the shifting chessboard of Asia to the tortured sands of the Greater Middle East, Manish Tewari illuminates the fault lines of power, conflict and ambition that will shape the destiny of nations in the decades ahead. This is not merely a book of geopolitics. It is a profound meditation on the art of statecraft in an age where technology, ideology and tradition entwine in an uneasy embrace. Through the sharp lens of a seasoned parliamentarian, Tewari reveals India’s unique place on the global stage, a nation poised at the crossroads of destiny, armed with history and resilience, but still needing to strengthen its capabilities and show the courage to play tough, practical politics. For readers young and old, seekers of truth and students of history alike, A World Adrift offers more than insight. It is a beacon in the storm, a stirring call to awareness, and a reminder that the tides of history wait for none. Will India seize the rising current, catch the tailwinds of opportunity thereby sailing robustly towards fortune, or remain adrift lost in the shallows of vacillation and internal contradictions? The voyage begins here.
