  1. Sarvesh –

    A fascinating, if somewhat academic, exploration of medicine and disease. It’s a valuable resource for researchers.

  2. Yash Mahajan –

    Good information but a little monotone. More analysis on the human impacts would improve this book. Slightly repetitive.

  3. Muskan –

    Comprehensive and well-researched. It sheds light on the long-term consequences of colonial policies. A bit lengthy though!

  4. Anupama Singh –

    Satya’s book offers a unique perspective. I found the ecological aspect especially insightful, though the writing could be more engaging.

  5. Akshay Agnihotri –

    A thought-provoking book. The author really make you understand the health challenges of the time.

    A great read, I learned a lot about the interplay of disease and medicine in India. Satya is a great author

  7. Shiwam Singh Singroul –

    This book gave me a new perspective. However, it was a slog to get through at times because of the academic tone.

  8. Prasanta Basak –

    A detailed look at colonial India’s health issues. It was informative, but a bit dense at times. Worth reading if you’re interested in the topic.

  9. Sudivya Singh Chauhan –

    Interesting subject matter, but the book is quite dry. It could benefit from a more narrative approach.

  10. Nitish Kumar Singh –

    The book provides good historical context. However, it felt repetitive in certain sections. Overall, a decent read.

  11. Pallav Kumar Dey –

    Excellent research! The impact of colonialism on public health is well-documented. Highly recommended for history buffs.

  12. Bhavana Dubey –

    I appreciated the focus on the Deccan Plateau. The book is informative, but not exactly a light read.

  13. Harsh Khera –

    Satya does a good job linking historical context to current health crises.

  14. Surya Prakash Sahoo –

    While informative, the book is dense and academic. Could be more accessible to a wider audience. Focus more on the human effect.

  15. Simar Singh Gulati –

    A must-read for anyone studying colonial India. The connection between disease and ecology is brilliantly explored.
