    A valuable book that covers a large amount of history of India’s urbanization! A must have for people who are in the city planning sector.

  2. Parjeet Singh –

    A comprehensive overview of Indian urban development. I appreciated the focus on social and cultural forces. A tad academic, but valuable.

  3. Sahil Carpenter –

    The book provides a good basic understanding of how socioeconomics affect the landscape of India. Some topic feels rushed.

  4. Sonamsi –

    While informative, it lacked engaging storytelling. The historical context was great but the modern applications felt underdeveloped.

  5. Premsi Raman T –

    I gained a new appreciation for the history of Indian urban planning. The chapters related to the colonianlism really stand out.

  6. Shuchi Bhatnagar –

    This book opened my eyes to the complexities of India’s urban planning. Highly recommend for anyone interested in urban studies or Indian history.

  7. Shashank Dilip Bhavsar –

    A fascinating look at India’s urban evolution! Agrawal connects the dots between history and modern cityscapes. A bit dense at times, but worth the read.

    I enjoyed reading this book. I will definitely keep this in my library for future references and reviews. I learned so much about the making of the landscapes.

  9. Aryan Nair –

    An alright book. The topics covered are interesting, but it is not too captivating to read. It feels like reading a journal.

  10. Mohit Kumar Swami –

    I liked how the book provides insights into the planning and conservation of India’s infrastructure. It would be better if the book contains more pictures.

  11. Priya –

    The layout of the book is well-organized. It allows me to easily read each of the contents in the book. The book can be quite tedious at times.

  12. Anmol –

    Interesting content, but the writing style felt a bit dry. I learned a lot about the historical influences on Indian cities though.

  13. Dhruv Chandra –

    The Making of the Indian Landscape is a must-read if you want to appreciate the evolution of the cities. It is a little bit lengthy, but the context is important.

    Excellent exploration of the forces shaping India’s cities! I never considered these various factors. Highly recommended to landscape enthusiasts.

  15. Anshul Bhardwaj –

    It gives a detailed account on each of the changes that happened to the landscapes of India. Some topics can be hard to comprehend at first.
