Opis

Any simple definition of 'Hinduism' is difficult, if not impossible. This is partly owing to the nuances of the Sanskrit language, and partly to the literal interpretation of Hindu imagery and mythology. This book, first published in 1977, is an essential reference source that goes some way to clarifying Hinduism.
