Helen Abadzi, an educational psychologist at the World Bank by day, has published a book (in Greek, but beautifully illustrated) on the history of Bollywood borrowing in Greek popular music (which peaked in the late 50s and early 60s). Here’s her weblog (in English) with related info: http://helen-abadzi.sulekha.com/default.htm.
