4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent synthesis, 1 Sep 1999
By A Customer
This book is to be commended for its clear rejection of the Aryan invasion theory, which the distinguished British anthropologist, Edmund Leach, has termed a theory born out of European racism. (But it was sad to see an articulation of such racism in the remarks of Richard Meadow in the Preface where he characterizes work coming out of the subcontinent as `wild flights of fancy or long leaps of faith'.) I wish that Kenoyer had tried to integrate literary evidence from India into his narrative. That would have made his story more rounded and interesting.
