`The major merit of the book is that it analyses both pre- and post-reform periods and questions the view that the passenger car industry in India is an example of success of liberalization.' Sudip Chaudhuri, Professor, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta, Kolkata, India `Jatinder Singh's book is an important study on one dimension of the changing face of Indian capitalism. A follow-up study on the grave environmental implications of increasing supply of and demand for cars should be the logical outcome.' Pritam Singh, Professor of Economics, Oxford Brookes Business School, Oxford, UK `A seminal contribution on India's passenger car industry in a context wherein industry-specific studies are the need of the hour to deepen our understanding on what ails India's manufacturing sector.'
