内容説明

While building a modern economy and a democratic, secular society, India has inherited a rich civilization with an unparalleled diversity of ethnic, linguistic and religious groups going back many thousands of years. The Historical Dictionary is a ready reference on the history and current events of India with a scope as wide as the subcontinent itself. Supplemented by a chronology, a glossary of key terms, physical, political, and historical maps and a comprehensive bibliography. The Introduction is a miniature masterpiece, conveying an initial personal perception of Indian civilization, philosophy and social, political and religious problems before a more objective overview of India's geographic setting and historical background. It belongs in every general reference library of any size. - REFERENCE REVIEWS ...perhaps this is the best ready-reference dictionary ever written on the history and current events of India. It is an excellent addition to the literature, and this book is highly recommended for all historians...- ARBA
