“Black’s book has a lot of intelligence and is well-researched. His ability to draw out the concrete and social in these narratives is most impressive, as well as issues such wealth, prestige and regional rivalry and gender relations. Journal of the American Oriental Society an] original and stimulating account of early Indian thought.” History of Religions: “This book is outstanding.” “This book is the best, most informative, and most theoretically advanced book I have ever read on the Upanisads.” – Patrick Olivelle (editor of Between the Empires. Society in India 300 BCE to 40 CE). Students have asked me for recommendations on books about the Upanisads many times over the years. We now have a long, critical look at these texts from a multitheoretical viewpoint sociologically, historical, rhetorical and gendered. Jeffery J. Kripal is the author of The Serpent’s Gift : Gnostic Reflections for the Study of Religion
