Negative Positive
Title: Not so incisive
Review: Its important to know straight off, that this book is largely an attack on Vivekananda's views of Vedanta. Therefore, you'd think it would be lucid, burning and deadly in its aim. Instead, its a loosely cobbled evaluation of his position on various things, and comes to a conclusion that he contradicted himself, made some wooly remarks, and just didn't provide a one size fits all solution to moksha.The only good thing about this book was that it gave a good insight into the starting of the Brahmo Samaj in India, and a bit of an insight into various figureheads such as Ramakrishna etc. Oh, and at $24 is one of the most expensive books per page I've bought.Can't say I'd recommend it to anyone.
