I have read the following books and recommend them...
The Indians: Portrait Of A People - by Sudhir Kakar
Highly recommend, it has some of the best thesis on the social system of Indians.
Highly Recommended

The Kaoboys of R&aw: Down Memory Lane - B. Raman.
Good book, has some good tidbits, will be intresting for plp who are intrested on how things work on the inside in intelligence and security. But does not goes into too much details, which i think is understandable.
Recommended.
Reading
Brahmin and Non-Brahmin: Genealogies of the Tamil Political Present - M.S.S.Pandian
