India's water crisis arrives in fragments. A flood in the news. A summer when the tanker came later than usual. A neighbour who struck nothing after drilling. A scheme announced and quietly forgotten. Each fragment feels complete. None of it adds up.

Without the picture, the crisis remains something happening somewhere - rather than something produced by all of us, through decisions individually
reasonable and collectively catastrophic. The perplexity cuts across every level. The expert holds one piece. The official another. The farmer has lived the whole thing and cannot be heard. This book is written for all three.

Drawing on twenty years of field experience and insights from behavioural economics, game theory, and constitutional law, The Borewell Paradox makes an honest attempt to see it whole - and to show how the fragmentation of how we see this crisis is itself part of what sustains it.

THE FARMER ALREADY KNOWS. THIS BOOK ASKS WHETHER THE REST OF US ARE READY TO.
