author: Alain Danilou
description: "A pleasure to behold and an invigorating experience to read." (<i>American Anthropologist</i>)<br /><br />"If you read only one book on Hinduism, it must be Danielou's <i>Myths and Gods of India</i>." (<i>Tyr, August 2002</i>)<br /><br />" . . . sheds light on more than just Hindu philosophy and practices, but also on how the Western 'Orientalphiles' have been clearly selective in what they put forward as their vision of India." (<i>Institute of Hermetic Studies, Sep 2008</i>)
