  1. Arghyadip Poddar –

    An interesting perspective on caste. It challenges assumptions but sometimes felt a bit academic. The regional focus was insightful. I learned a lot but it was a dense read.

  2. Prashant Tripathi –

    A good academic work on caste, but not for the casual reader. Little lengthy and the narrative can get confusing at times. Otherwise fine

  3. Abhishek Kumar –

    Challenging read, but ultimately rewarding. Gained new insights into how caste operates. Statistical information presented is very impressive.

  4. Neeraj Davis –

    A solid contribution to the field. The book makes some really good points but is sometimes repetitive. Overall a good resource for reseachers.

  5. Nayan Ghosh –

    It’s okay. I had hoped for more practical examples. Little boring to read. It challenges traditional view but overall, it is an average book.

  6. Aditi Singh –

    Eye-opening! This book completely changed my understanding of caste dynamics. Highly recommended. Little bit lengthy book to read.

  7. Mansi Sharma –

    Excellent research. It’s a valuable resource for understanding caste in India. Data analysis is bit complex to understand

  8. Aniket Mathur –

    Important book, but could be more engaging. It presents a critical view of caste system. Needed more personal stories to make the argument stronger.

  9. Himanshu Singh Yadav –

    A thought-provoking analysis of caste, but I wish there were more discussion of solutions. It identifies the problem well, but leaves you wanting more.

  10. Sidharth Saxena –

    While the book offers a new lens to view caste, the writing style could be more accessible. Empirical evidence provided felt overwhelming at times.

  11. Ved Himanshu Patel –

    Not an easy read, but worth the effort. It offers a fresh, important perspective on caste. The writer shows the complexity very well.

  12. Vijay M –

    A must-read for anyone studying Indian society. The arguments are compelling and well-supported. Sometimes difficult to follow the arguments.
