Description
The Golden Road is an instant Sunday Times bestseller that reveals India's transformative role in shaping ancient Eurasia. Award-winning historian William Dalrymple traces how Indian civilisation—from mathematics and astronomy to art, religion, and technology—spread across the world along trade routes stretching from the Red Sea to the Pacific.
Discover how India's ideas created the Hindu temple at Angkor Wat, influenced Chinese Buddhism, funded Roman trade, and gave the world the numerals we use today, including zero. This groundbreaking work restores India to its rightful place as the forgotten heart of the ancient world.
Praised as "richly woven and highly readable" (Spectator), "dazzling" (Guardian), and "the most compelling retelling we have had for generations" (Financial Times), this is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how one civilisation transformed global culture and technology.
