  1. Manav Gautam

    While the topic is important, I found Diamond’s writing style a bit dry. It felt like a textbook at times. Good information but hard to get through.

  2. Vivek Patel

    I appreciated the breadth of Diamond’s research, but some of his conclusions felt a bit simplistic. Still, a valuable contribution to the discussion.

  3. Aviral Agrawal

    A powerful and unsettling book. Diamond’s research is extensive, and he makes a strong case for the interconnectedness of environmental and societal issues.

  4. Pradyot Sharma

    Diamond’s insights are invaluable. He connects history with present-day challenges seamlessly. It’s a must-read for anyone concerned about the future.

  5. Shreya

    Collapse is a wake-up call. It’s not always easy to read, but it’s essential for understanding the challenges we face. Everyone should read this!

  6. Lakshmi Kannan

    Excellent analysis of past societal failures! Diamond presents a convincing argument for the need for sustainable practices. Highly recommend it.

  7. Utkarsh Kumar

    I found “Collapse” to be both informative and depressing. Diamond’s scope is impressive, but the constant negativity wore me down. Still worth reading.

  8. Selven George Cristi

    A good overview of societal collapses. Diamond’s insights are helpful. I would recommend it to anyone interested in history or environmental studies.

  9. Abhishek Anand

    This book is a real eye-opener. It challenges you to think about the long-term consequences of our actions. Important, even if a bit disheartening.

  10. Dhruv Kumar

    A fascinating but dense read. Diamond makes compelling connections, but the sheer volume of information can be overwhelming. Still, very thought-provoking!

  11. Sreyoshi Gope

    This book scared me! It’s well-researched and paints a grim picture, but I felt a little hopeless after reading it. Could use a bit more optimism.

  12. Anuj Pandey

    Collapse is an important book. The case studies are intriguing, and it made me think a lot about our current trajectory. A bit preachy at times though.
