From the largest Hindu temple in the world at Angkor Wat to the Buddhism of China, from the trade that helped fund the Roman Empire to the creation of the numerals we use today (including zero), India transformed the culture and technology of its ancient world – and our world today as we know it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48929560953082,"sku":"4IEKJNVWFG73","price":573.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/0473\/5226\/files\/4IEKJNVWFG73.jpg?v=1780087410","url":"https:\/\/versoz.co.in\/products\/4iekjnvwfg73","provider":"VERSOZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
