Hinduism in Global Context

Want to learn more about Hinduism? In our Reference section here in the Social Sciences rm., we are always looking for more books about the non-Abrahamic faiths (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) to supplement the  websites and databases we recommend when people call us with questions. We recently acquired an Encyclopedia of Hinduism (2013) published in English by the India Heritage Research Foundation, with more than 7,000 entries about this oldest living spiritual and ethical tradition. Come browse through to see color illustrations of Hindu art, discover Hinduism's global context, its history and geography, language and literature, philosophy, polity, religion and spirituality, sciences, social institutions and movements, spiritual disciplines, or read the latest scholarship in Hindu studies.
