This review is from: Arise Arjuna: Hinduism and the modern world (Paperback)

Arise arjuna is an extremely well written book.I use the phrase well written not just because of the accuracy of the facts,but also for the in-depth understanding the author shows about the economic and political factors prevalent in India. I have read many books on various religion and a number of books on Hinduism.Arise arjuna impressed me because it looks at religion taking into consideration the social,economic and political equations.As a resident of India and a practicing Hindu,the book did not hold any surprises for me,but i would recommend it to any person who wants to learn more about India and Hinduism,along with the current scenario of Hinduism in the modern world.
