Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"This book will become a classic. It has passion, compelling stories, sober reflection, and an incredibly artful structure that carries the reader along. Most important, like all great anthropology, the story speaks to the issue of what constitutes the human spirit. There is wisdom in this book, and for that rare gift I am grateful to Dil Das and Joseph Alter." * Paul Stoller, author of Sensuous Scholarship *
