A bit too academic for my taste. I was hoping for a more accessible introduction to the topic. Not a bad book, just not what I expected.

An essential addition to any library focusing on South Asian studies. Entwistle’s insights are unparalleled. A bit pricey, but worth it.

The book is invaluable for researchers. It has helped me understand the nuances of Indo-Aryan languages. Some chapters were more accessible than others.

A dense but rewarding read. Entwistle’s scholarship is evident, though sometimes hard to follow. Focuses on very specific linguistic details. Worth the effort for serious scholars.
Aswani Das –
Interesting topic but found it a bit dry. The writing style could be more engaging. Useful as a reference book, perhaps not for casual reading.

Provides a wealth of information. However, the structure felt a bit disjointed at times. Needs more editing in later editions.

I struggled to get through this book. Found it dense and slow moving. Too focused on minute details rather than wider context

The book is a valuable resource, but the language is very dense. I recommend it for people familiar with the topic, not beginners.

I was hoping to find more on the cultural aspects, but it was more focused on linguistics. Still, a decent read with some useful facts.
