The Personality of India: Pre- and Proto-historic Foundation of India and Pakistan c3.2

c3.2

Much in this book is necessarily controversial. Some of it will be modified and supplemented in due course by the author himself. But that is surely one of its outstanding merits. It is a survey of the field through the eyes of one of its most active explorers in the year 1958; but it is also a stimulus, both to the author himself and to his colleagues, to resolve complexities and to fill up gaps. The Second Edition is, in effect, a preface to the Third Edition, which will, I have no doubt, reach us sooner than I should dare again to prophesy.
