We had a lovely surprise visitor at Modern Book Centre!

Author Ameer Shahul dropped by and kindly signed copies of his latest, The Silent Syndicate: How Big Finance Is Destroying India's Healthcare.

One of India's most compelling voices on healthcare and climate, Ameer made his debut with Heavy Metal: How a Global Corporation Poisoned Kodaikanal, which won the GreenLitFest Book of the Year 2024 and is now being adapted into a feature film. He's also the author of Vaccine Nation: How Immunisation Shaped India.

The Silent Syndicate is the latest chapter in his fearless investigative work.

Signed copies of The Silent Syndicate are on our shelves now.
