This book is a clear, accessible and comprehensive presentation of Hinduism as a living faith, a religion that boasts over 800 million adherents. So immense in variety is the Hindu tradition and so ancient its origins, that composing an introduction to the subject could be a daunting task. Klostermaier, however, an accomplished expert in the field, succeeds in presenting the key features of the Hindu religion succinctly and informatively. The text includes chapters on: the diversity of religions within the different Hindu communities; the Hindu philosophical quest; the cultural and sociological framework provided by the Vedic tradition; the place of Hinduism among other religions. For individuals seeking to understand what is known as "Hinduisim", for followers and students alike, this has to be on of the first books to read on the subject. - Back cover.
