ENDORSEMENT
Yes, this is a very important and well done
publication, a model for other scholars to
follow. The geographical and cultural
continuity is a key point to emphasize, such as
we noted in Hidden Horizons. India does not
have a borrowed civilization from immigrants
but reflects largely an indigenous development.
