Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Insistent Life is an exciting and thought-provoking contribution to the field of Jain studies, particularly because it draws on an impressive array of sources to think about how a minority religious tradition many thousands of years old can (and should) participate in modern, complicated debates about human life." * Reading Religion *
"This compelling book brilliantly illustrates how an ancient minority religious tradition like Jainism can be used to deliberate on modern bioethical issues, debates, and discussions, making it an illustrious contribution to bioethics and Jain studies." * Religious Studies Review *
