  1. Rajat Jain

    The book is alright but quite boring. Not easy to read. I only finished it because I needed it for my research.

  2. Jeelkumar Rajeshbhai Kadeval

    A dense but important read. Padamsee sheds light on colonial stereotypes. Some sections felt repetitive though. Overall, insightful.

  3. Poonam Saijari

    Well-researched and thought-provoking, but the writing style is a bit too academic for my taste. Still valuable.

  4. Sakshi Yogendra Kasat

    This book is a revelation! Padamsee expertly dissects the harmful stereotypes perpetuated by British colonial powers.

    Could have been better. It didn’t particularly grab my attention, but has decent information nonetheless.

    An eye-opening book! Changed my understanding of the historical narratives surrounding Indian Muslims. Very insightful.

  7. Ankur Gaba

    While the topic is relevant, I found the book difficult to get through. It could have been more engaging.

  8. Manish Kumar

    A somewhat dense but rewarding read. Offers a fresh perspective on the historical construction of Muslim identity.

    A solid academic work, though perhaps not for the general reader. Still, an important contribution to the field.

  13. Hemant Kumar

    A great addition to postcolonial studies! The book offers valuable perspectives on the construction of Muslim identity. Highly recommended.

  14. Shaswati Doley

    A bit one-sided in its perspective. While informative, it lacks a balanced view of British-Indian Muslim relations.

  15. Kushagra Sinha

    A valuable resource for understanding the complexities of identity formation in colonial India. Highly recommended.

    Excellent scholarship. This book is essential for anyone studying South Asian history and colonial discourse. A must-read!

    The subject matter is undoubtedly important, but the book felt a little dry and inaccessible for casual readers.

    Interesting topic but the writing style was a bit dry and academic. Still, learned a lot about the subject.

    Amazing! Padamsee’s book is a powerful indictment of colonial discourse and its lasting impact. Read this book!
