Review:

The book . . . meticulously traces the channels. . . by which the floodwaters of Vedanta inundated and fertilized the filed of Western thinking. -- The Hindu, Indial's National Newspaper, November 25, 2003

This very edifying study has provided great service to the world by bringing together a wealth of facts and insights. -- Susan Fohr, PH.D., University of Pittsburg

This work will partially remove the die-hard prejudice prevailing in the minds of Westernized Indian scholars and Western scholars. -- Pravrajika Vidyaprana, Global Vedanta, Vol. IX, No. 1
