Description
This study attempts to capture the great diversity of religious phenomena in India. All the great religions of the world - Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism and Zoroastrianism - are found within the geographical confines of the country, affecting the lives of its people in a vital way. Religion is a central concern in sociological and anthropological investigations and this volume tries to cover all the major theoretical approaches to its study - evolutionary, functionalist, structuralist, cultural-analytical, phenomenological and hermeneutic.
