reviewed Faces of the Feminine in Ancient, Medieval, and Modern India on June 22, 2016 Faces of the Feminine in Ancient
I think a concise history of India might be a mistake. Five thousand years of existence (the author begins in roughly 3000 B.C.) crammed into 192 pages makes for an overwhelming experience, particularly when names and dates flash by so quickly they're easily forgotten. I give this an extra star for the extensive drawings and photos, which give the reader a better sense of India than the text does.
