A concise and plain spoken introduction to Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, and the religion of the Jains. This book is for students and anyone else desiring to learn the basics of religion in India in a quick yet comprehensive way.
This book was a requirement for a Religions of India class I took in college. It is a really quick and easy read, but it tells you a lot of information. It basically sums up all of the religions that are in India, giving a brief history and a little bit about their practices. The focus is on Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, and the Jains. There is soooo much more information about these religions in other book, but if you want a fast lesson then I recommend this book.
