'The contributions here miraculously interrelate, all are
delightful though massively learned, and all evoke interests beyond
ancient India. The editing has been superb, and we are given an
excellent Bibliography to the whole and a good
index...Dharma/sastra, a magnificent literature, has been in the
doldrums for too long: this book should put some welcome wind in
its sails.'
J. Duncan M. Derrett, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society.
'Prof. Rahul Peter Das deserves all credit for drawing our
attention to this enigma...[a] stimulating article.'
Sreeramula Rajeswara Sarma, Journal of the European Ayurvedic
Society, 1995.
'As a group, these essays form an important contribution to the

Dominik Wujastyk, Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, 1995.
