reviewed A Survey of Hinduism on February 06, 2017 A Survey of Hinduism
No one book can grasp the complexity and history of Hinduism. Having lived in the SubContinent, I realse many Indians dislike any non Indian attempts at description.
However, this book goes a long way to grasp the inticacies and history of Hndu thought that even many of my Indian friends hae not considered. This is not a shallow gloss, but will give an sincere student of Hindi thought a grasp of the ancient texts over time whatever his heritage.
