Many Hindus today are urban middle-class people with religious values similar to those of their professional counterparts in America and Europe. Just as modern professionals continue to build new churches, synagogues, and now mosques, Hindus are erecting temples to their gods wherever their work and their lives take them.

Joanne Waghorne leads her readers on a journey through this new middle-class Hindu diaspora, focusing on their efforts to build...
