Book Synopsis Greater Magadha by : Johannes Bronkhorst
Book excerpt: Through a detailed analysis of the available cultural and chronological data, this book overturns traditional ideas about the cultural history of India and proposes a different picture instead. The idea of a unilinear development out of Brahmanism, in particular, is challenged.
