"In lucid and vivid prose, Geoff Childs and Namgyal Choedup tell a poignant story of educational outmigration from rural Himalayan Nepal. From a Trickle to a Torrent is an important contribution to the disciplines of anthropology, area studies, education, and migration." - Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute"Unlike much of the literature on migration and social change, this work pays careful, nuanced attention to how such education-driven outmigration transforms the experiences of those who stay home as well as those who leave, those who return, and those who strive to imagine futures that posit so-called marginal homelands and well-known cosmopolitan places as fundamentally interconnected.”-Sienna Craig, author of Healing Elements: Efficacy and the Social Ecologies of Tibetan Medicine
