* [[Christopher de Bellaigue]], "The River" (the Ganges; review of [[Sunil Amrith]], ''Unruly Waters: How Rains, Rivers, Coasts, and Seas Have Shaped Asia's History''; [[Sudipta Sen]], ''Ganges: The Many Pasts of an Indian River''; and Victor Mallet, ''River of Life, River of Death: The Ganges and India's Future''), ''[[The New York Review of Books]]'', vol. LXVI, no. 15 (10 October 2019), pp.&nbsp;34–36. "[I]n 1951 the average Indian [inhabitant of India] had access annually to 5,200 cubic meters of water. The figure today is 1,400&nbsp;... and will probably fall below 1,000 cubic meters – the [[UN]]'s definition of '[[water scarcity]]' – at some point in the next few decades. Compounding the problem of lower summer rainfall&nbsp;... India's [[water table]] is in freefall [due] to an increase in the number of [[tube well]]s&nbsp;... Other contributors to India's seasonal dearth of water are [[canal]] leaks [and] the continued sowing of thirsty crops" (p.&nbsp;35.)
