An economist, urban theorist, environmentalist, and writer, Sanjeev Sanyal grew up between Kolkata, Sikkim and Delhi before heading off to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. Sanjeev spent most of his adult life battling international financial markets. One day in 2008, mostly on a whim, he decided to move back to India and travel all over the country with his family for a couple of years. This resulted in his second book, The Land of Seven Rivers: A Brief History of India s Geography. In 2011, he took up a role as the global strategist of one of the world s largest banks. He also spent the next few years exploring the Indian Ocean rim, which resulted in The Ocean of Churn: How the Indian Ocean Shaped Human History. Currently Sanjeev lives in Delhi where he serves as the principal economic adviser to the Indian government.
