8 reviews for Idea of Ancient India: Essays on Religion, Politics and Archaeology

  1. Nandani Agrawal

    A mixed bag. Some chapters were brilliant, others were repetitive. The book could have benefitted from stricter editing. Still, worth reading for serious students of history.

  2. Prashasti Verma

    While informative, I found the writing style a bit academic and hard to follow. The content is valuable, but prepare for a challenging read.

  3. Pratyush Singh Chauhan

    Singh brings ancient India to life. The archaeology sections were particularly interesting. However, the political analysis felt a little biased at times. Overall, a good resource.

  4. Umar Mateen

    Very detailed account of ancient India! I loved learning about the religion aspects from the book and recommend it to others.

  5. Sanskar Maheshwari

    This book really taught me the importance of archeology. It’s a helpful field that should be invested in more. I can’t wait to visit some of these places one day!

  6. Pranav V J

    A fascinating, if dense, read. Singh’s deep dive into ancient India is commendable, but it can be overwhelming for casual readers. Some essays felt a bit dry. Overall, insightful but needs patience.

  7. Prince Jangra

    A must-read for history buffs! The book provided an intricate look into ancient India and has helped me to learn more about the world.

  8. Aniket Sahu

    I learned so much! This book is very educational and helps one understand the cultural values of ancient India. It felt a little long, but I am happy with the purchase!
