Recenzje

Balachandran's outstanding book brings to light the dense web of relationships-of power, kinship, and memory-that constituted Gujarat's politics...The book will be essential reading for anyone interested in precolonial India, South Asian Islam, or the history of textual transmission.' -Samira Sheikh, Associate Professor of History and Asian Studies, Vanderbilt University, USA
