Please join us for an afternoon with the distinguished environmental, 
social, and cultural historian Ramachandra Guha.  One of India's 
leading intellectuals, Ramachandra Guha is the author of more than a 
dozen books and edited volumes on topics such as environmental 
history, social justice, post-colonial history, and of course, 
cricket.  Guha has held several academic positions, including posts 
at Stanford, Berkeley, Yale, Oslo, and the Indian Institute of 
Science.  He was the recipient of a MacArthur grant, and in 2002 he 
received the Leopold-Hidy Prize for the best article published in the 
journal Environmental History.  At Harvard, Guha will discuss his 
life's work in general, as well as his most recent book, How Much 
Should a Person Consume?: Thinking Through the Environment.

Space for this event is limited.  To reserve a spot, please RSVP to

This event is made possible through the generous support of the

for International Affairs, and the Harvard University Center for the 
Environment.
