Hinduism is often misunderstood, with many myths surrounding its gods, goddesses, caste system, and views on sex and everyday life.

From its links to Buddhism and Jainism, to the resurgence of Hindu extremism and the influence of Bollywood, this book offers a comprehensive introduction to Hinduism's many facets.
