The Armchair Guide to World Religions, Vol. 5: Hinduism

By: James, Matthew

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hinduism is one of the world's oldest religions and one of the most geographically static of all the major religions. Limited almost entirely to India, it has unified its people and determined its social structure and culture for thousands of years. It continues to be the dominant religious, political, and social force in India and will remain so for a long time. This book provides an introduction to this unique religion which has hundreds of millions of followers and a permanent place in the governance of one of the most populous countries on earth.
