The writings contained within The Audacity of Opinion: Reflections, Journeys, Musings are a vivid reflection of myriad issues that India, as a nation, faces today. The essays are thought-provoking, prescient, and written by one who has an enviable insight into the workings of India`s political, defence and economic system. During his long and celebrated career, Jaswant Singh has witnessed India`s growth from within, being a part of its chequered political history. The essays touch upon complex issues including the Assam Accord, terrorism in Punjab, India as a secular, socialist republic, the challenges of diplomacy, and the nuclear conundrum. In the section `Voices of the District`, Singh touchingly writes about the acute problems due to scarcity of water, and fodder for cattle; he writes about the peoples` tenacity to fight every adverse situation.
The essays are a brilliant expose on the `state of India`, and written in Jaswant Singh`s inimitable style laced with wry humour, they are a telling account of the India of today.
