The costs of industrial agriculture are astonishing in terms of damage to the environment, human health, animal suffering, and social equity, and the situation demands that we expand our ecological imagination to meet this crisis. In response to growing dissatisfaction with the existing food system, farmers and consumers are creating alternate models of production and consumption that are both sustainable and equitable. In Growing Stories from India: Religion and the Fate of Agriculture, author A. Whitney Sanford uses the story of the deity Balaram and the Yamuna River as a foundation for discussing the global food crisis and illustrating the Hindu origins of agrarian thought. By employing narrative as a means of assessing modern agriculture, Sanford encourages us to reconsider our relationship with the earth. Merely creating new stories is not enough -- she asserts that each story must lead to changed practices. Growing Stories from India demonstrates that conventional agribusiness is only one of many options and engages the work of modern agrarian luminaries to explore how alternative agricultural methods can be implemented.

In these stories, first published over a hundred years ago, Kipling sets the stage for encounters between the East and the West – between India and Anglo-India. These tales are remarkable not just for the range of Indian places and situations they describe or their wealth of historical detail but also for their sensitive and by and large fair representations of both British and Indian characters. Kipling takes on the thorny issues of empire, race, miscegenation and the practice of ‘going native’, and uses them as literary tropes, to examine human culture, religion and society. Whether it is the account of Lispeth who first embraces Christianity at ‘the mature age of five weeks’ and then rejects it and the hypocrisy of missionaries when her heart is broken, or that of little Tods who is more at home in the bazaars than in a colonial drawing-room and knows India as a native, or that of Bisesa and Trejago whose affair in the cover of darkness leads to explosive and tragic consequences for both, here are tales that have an uncanny ability to get to the heart of the human situation and represent behavior, strengths and weaknesses, on both sides of the ‘divide’ between the East and the West. Immediate and vivid descriptions, searing wit and above all Kipling’s remarkable talent for spinning a yarn makes this collection of stories a truly rewarding read. Little know. An eclectic collection of old favorites as well as rarely anthologized pieces, here is Kipling’s India at its finest.
