    A deep dive into the heart of India! Some of the language is a bit outdated, but the core message remains powerful and relevant.

    Coomaraswamy’s work is truly insightful. It is a vital piece of literature on Indian culture and heritage.

    Coomaraswamy’s knowledge is impressive. However, I found the book to be a bit dry and academic at times. It’s not a light read, but worth the effort.

    An important work for understanding Indian aesthetics. It can be challenging to understand if you don’t have background knowledge of the topic.

    The descriptions of the sculptures are captivating. I did struggle with some of the philosophical concepts. Still, a valuable resource.
