About the Book
Walking with the Wild: A Life in Nature and Science
Born in Pune in 1942, just as Salim Ali’s Book of Indian Birds was published, Madhav Gadgil grew up with a deep love for nature. Inspired by his birdwatcher father, he learned to identify birds before he could even read. This early fascination blossomed into a lifelong journey exploring India’s diverse landscapes, cultures, and ecosystems.
In Walking with the Wild, Gadgil recounts his extraordinary life—watching peacocks dance and elephants roam, living among fisherfolk on the west coast, horticulturists in the Western Ghats, and tribals in Manipur and Maharashtra. An ecologist, historian, mathematician, and policy thinker, he has been at the heart of India’s conservation efforts, shaping our understanding of the delicate balance between people and nature.
This book is a vivid blend of memoir, science, and storytelling, offering an intimate look at India’s landscapes and the communities that call them home. With a scientist’s insight and a wanderer’s heart, Gadgil brings to life a world of wonder, resilience, and the ever-evolving relationship between humans and the environment.
