Bibliography
`Review from previous edition Frykenberg succeeds wonderfully, with
a book that is richly informative on countless aspects of Indian
history quite apart from its contributions to the study of
Christianity.'
Philip Jenkins, Christian Century, [d 05/05/2009]
`Those who wish to understand the intricate complexities of
religious change in modern India will find Robert Frykenberg's
scholarly perceptions deeply instructive and richly rewarding. Is
Christianity an Indian religion? Read this book and you may change
your mind.'
Brian Stanley, Times Literary Supplement,
`This book, an extensive study of Christianity in India from
beginnings to present, is timely... it considers Christianity's
status and fortunes-good and ill-on the subcontinent.'
Leo Bowder, Church Times
`An individual treasury of insights, both into Christianity in
India and into the manifold problems of "acculturation"in a
globalised world.'
David Goodall, The Tablet
