Environmentalism in India is a matter more of a passion than of reason. As it has become a prisoner of intense ideological battles, an informed but dispassionate assessment of its contribution to Indian thinking on politics and development is a rarity. In this context, the book entitled Environmental Politics: People 's Lives and Development Choices by Sumi Krishna is a welcome effort. Sumi Krishna is a senior journalist who has been consistently writing on developmental and environmental issues.

In this context, the book entitled Environmental Politics: People 's Lives and Development Choices by Sumi Krishna is a welcome effort.
