  1. Sonika Vashisht –

    I learned a lot about a region and issue I knew nothing about. It’s really dry, so takes a bit of focus to read.

  2. Diksha Gupta –

    I was expecting something more sensational. The details, while informative, can become repetitive. It gets a little boring.

  3. Ekam Jeet Singh –

    Important subject matter, but I struggled to get through it. The details are overwhelming. I wish it had more photos of the areas talked about.

  4. Saksham Mishra –

    An eye-opening account of the bamboo famine. It’s a complex issue, and Nag does a good job explaining it, but it’s academically styled writing.

  5. Sidharth Magoo –

    A vital read for anyone interested in ecology and its effects on people. The writing style is direct and very informative.

  6. Madhu N –

    Gives you a greater understanding and respect for these types of climate disasters and it’s impact on agriculture.

  7. Piyush Raj –

    This book provided a perspective on environmental disaster that I had not previously considered. Very informative and thought-provoking.

  8. Piyush Bhanwal –

    A fascinating, if somewhat dry, exploration of a unique ecological disaster. Nag’s research is thorough, but the writing could be more engaging. Still worth reading.

  9. Parv Medatwal Medatwal –

    A solid academic work. It’s good research, not necessarily a fun read, but very important.

  10. Priyanka Sarkar –

    It is an okay book. The topic and subject matter is amazing and very interesting. But the book’s writing is very dry.

  11. Raj Ghadiya –

    The connection between bamboo, rats, and famine is mind-blowing! The book is little repetitive but overall interesting.

  12. Ishita Shrivastava –

    Nag’s deep dive into the social impact is compelling. A bit dense at times, but the insights are valuable.
