"Jagriti Gangopadhyay's Culture, Context and Aging of Older Indians is an excellent study engaging with gerontological discourses and ageing experiences in India and Canada. It is an invaluable contribution to the field of medical sociology as it provides a nuanced understanding of ageing . Thorough fieldwork and a wide range of secondary sources contribute towards the richness of this narrative. It will be a pleasure to read for a wide audience and most useful for students ." (Ranjana Saha, Contemporary South Asia, January 6, 2022) "The book is rich in ethnographic data, which include in-depth narrative style interviews, and each chapter has the potential to become an entire book. The book will be useful to students since it presents them with a model for gerontological research . and possible contributions to theory and recommendations for policymaking. The book, while being academically rigorous, is written in an accessible manner, which is its major strength and will ensure its reach to a wider audience.

" (Ketaki Chowkhani, Anthropology & Aging, Vol. 42 (2), 2021) "This book fits into the interstice of sociological and gerontological studies . What is unique about Gangopadhyay's study is that she can provide to the readers a detailed account of geographically, culturally, and economically distinct sites in one place. Doing justice to its title, the book brings in the different narratives. The book emerges as an important introductory text to socio-gerontological literature that can be further developed. this book serves as an essential read." (Deepali Aparajita Dungdung, doingsociology.org, December 12, 2021) "Jagriti Gangopadhyay not only provides a meticulous description of her methodology but also situates her positionality in shaping her accessibility to the field and is thoroughly reflexive of her embeddedness in the field.

This book is an important read for scholars across social science disciplines, policy makers and caregivers as it seeks to explicate aging as a lived experience instead of mere statistical enumeration of the aging population." (Sristi Mondal, Journal of Woman and Aging, August 4, 2021).
