Descriere
This book explores the construction of the idea of the ‘talented’ student in India and its relationship to the discourse of the ‘nation’. It situates the evolution of the National Science Talent Search (NSTS), and subsequently, the National Talent Search Examination (NTSE) with state sponsored ideas and practices of ‘nation-building’.
