Book of Editorials 2018: A Curated Selection

Years are but artificial markers of time. The past does not have to catch up with the present; it is truly a spirit that possesses the present. It informs people and events, infusing the instant with life and simultaneously setting the stage for the future.

The Hindu's editorials are a reflection of this 'history in motion' that seeks to capture the essence of what is happening in the world around us. They distill the essence of everyday news, offer a clear analysis, and, most importantly, they take a stand. In an era of information overload, they offer a nuanced perspective that separates the trivial from the significant, the transient from the permanent.

As a selection of editorials of the year gone by, this book brings to you a recap of 2018 in one volume. The contents have been curated and grouped to bring you opinions on news in the various sectors and fields, be it in India or parts of the world, in calendrical progression. The idea is to give the reader a quick look back into all the events that defined 2018, complete with background and context and a sharp point of view.

I believe that The Hindu's editorials are an important read, not only for the facts and the analyses, but also for their uncompromising stand on issues of public interest.
