520    "A first of its kind in India, the book addresses the 
       fundamental questions of environmental concern and 
       enquires into the complex patterns of human-nature 
       interaction within the discipline of environmental history
       in India. This book delves into history to examine a 
       number of critical themes, such as waterbodies and water, 
       forests, land use, wildlife and the issue of the history 
       of climate in India. It focuses on the methodological and 
       historiographical aspects of environmental history and 
       raises new questions to open up new windows leading to 
       fresh research questions. The book argues that 
       environmental history would serve as an important gateway 
       to the history of the human-nature relationship, for 
       example, exploring the role of water history would help in
       understanding the present context of water crisis in 
       Indian cities"--|cProvided by publisher.
