There are some papers about the teaching of history; for example:

Bhattacharya, N. (2009). Teaching History in Schools: The Politics of Textbooks in India. History Workshop Journal, Vol. 67, No. 1, pp. 99-110.

In a recent international conference on textbook research in mathematics education, I do not think there were any papers about such research in India; see:

Thanks Keith, I do appreciate your response.

Hi Ashar,

Have a look at this:

Also, try to search the UCL Institute of Education "Newsome Library" if you are able to access it because several students have done work on textbooks in India for an MPhil/PhD.

Hello Ashar Johnson Khokhar

please check the resources apart from above

Thank you Nirmala, Dima and Harshvardhan

Thanks Gregor

The Indian text books are so interesting to read, particularly in some areas/fields. However, some textbooks are 'fake', or 'cut-and-paste'; so as the writers. Recently an Indian Professor by the name of Pulpa Subba Rao was recruited by the university of Papua New Guinea and he has inflated the UPNG bookshops, library and other shops with his "cut & paste" textbooks. This idiot has given bad name/ image to the university of Papua New Guinea.
