From the Introduction:

Travelling to India is a great chance to experience another way of life. Yet many tourists are not open-minded or knowledgeable enough to really appreciate the new and varied pleasures of India. Travelling is also a great way to make new acquaintances and friends, but communication can often be a problem. Learning some Hindi, India’s most widely-spoken language, is an enjoyable way for the visitor to India to become more knowledgeable and to communicate better.
