Book excerpt: -- Learn the significance of Hinduism's many gods and deities quickly and concisely. -- This guide provides accurate information from a recognized scholar of Hinduism -- no prior knowledge required. -- A great supplement for students, travelers or those with a healthy curiosity about the roots and practices of a faith different from their own. Nearly 80 percent of India's population practice Hinduism. Large Hindu communities also practice outside of India -- Indonesia, Southeast Asia and notably Nepal where Hinduism is the official state religion. Hindu followers have also greatly increased in the U.S. since many immigrants from India have come to live in this country -- estimates currently range to well over a million. The Pocket Idiot's Guide "RM" to Hinduism clearly explains for its reader the complex myth and tenants inherent in Hinduism's rich pantheon (Shiva, Krishna, Vishnu and Brahma) and literature (Vedas). Diverse Hindu holidays and festivals marking the six seasons of the Hindu calendar (spring, summer, monsoons, autumn, winter, frosty) are categorically presented along with important concepts in its aims and practice like dharma, karma and three rituals (nitya, naimittika, kamya). Closing chapters will discuss Hinduism as a national movement and its role as global faith in the 21st century.

Book Synopsis The Complete Idiot's Guide to Philosophy by : Jay Stevenson, PhD.
Download or read book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Philosophy written by Jay Stevenson, PhD. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2003-02-05 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revised edition to a solid performing book, with expanded content on various philosophers and ideas. -- The current edition has sold over 61,000 since its release in November of 1997. -- Existing content is great, but needs to be added to in order to more effectively compete with Philosophy for Dummies, which, at 360 pages, is 100 pages over our current edition. -- By its very nature, philosophy is not subject to a great deal of change over time, and therefore can be expected to continue to perform at or above current levels. Philosophy is all about being, knowing, and acting. It poses daring questions such as what exists, what counts as knowledge, and how do we know things? And, as life becomes more and more complicated, people turn to philosophy to help themselves better understand the world around them-politics, religion, family, the environment, and more. The Complete Idiot's Guide "RM" to Philosophy, Second Edition will continue the first edition's success in exposing beginners to the world of philosophy, its ideas, and its philosophers. It will contain expanded content on existing ideas and philosophers covered in the first edition, but it will also introduce new philosophers whose ideas were not included in the first edition, but whose contributions to the world of philosophy are perhaps now less obscure.
