Reviews
'Entangled Lives - the first more-than-human history of the Eastern Himalayan Triangle by two master historians - is a groundbreaking text on the accounts of storying the intertwinement of Himalayan geology, homo sapiens, animals, and plants in the span of 40,000 years, overcoming modern anthropocentric historiographies' blindness to nonhuman lifeworlds, and recounting the co-creating, co-becoming, and co-transforming roles of humans and nonhumans who have together shaped the shared habitability of the Triangle. The authors' planetary engagement with a regional interspecies history critically reaffirms the invaluable role of more-than-human perspectives in our understanding of locally-manifested planetary challenges!' Dan Smyer Yü, Yunnan University, China; International Faculty Member, Universität zu Köln, Germany, 'This book is a must read for historians, scholars, and academicians interested in the Eastern Himalayan region. It encourages readers to relearn and reexamine the region's history, narratives, practices, traditions and the interconnectedness that exists among them.' Ramnath Reghunandhan and Loung Nathan K. K., Asian Affairs, 'Entangled Lives builds on the fundamental insight that history is always interspecies history. With elegance and in-depth knowledge, Joy Pachuau and Willem van Schendel outline a new mode of writing history where the lives of animals and plants matter and where scholars have to rethink taken for granted geographies and temporalities. This is a highly ambitious project that takes us from the movement of tectonic plates to indigenous cosmologies in the region that they aptly name the 'Eastern Himalayan Triangle'. It is a marvellous read, a book full of telling accounts of human care for elephants, mithun, bamboo, areca nut and other living beings. Through these entangled histories of co-becoming, we face the larger question of how to survive on a damaged planet.' Bengt G. Karlsson, Stockholm University, Sweden, 'Reading Entangled Lives, is a most effective way of getting acquainted with the Eastern Himalayan Triangle, a territory that forms a geographical and ecological region, buttressed between India and China at the core of which lies North-East India. The Triangle cuts across many international boundaries raising fascinating questions for the historian. A striking feature of this study is the charting of inter-relationships between plant, animal and human life, drawing on the symbolism of local narratives and information from contemporary disciplines. The book is a most impressive statement on how these human societies have related to their landscape, cosmologies, histories, and informs us about the continuities from the past and the changes in the present. Maps and illustrations add to the readability of a very accessible text.' Romila Thapar, Professor Emerita, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
