By Dr. Vastupal Parikh Publishers: Peace Publications, Rs. 600.00. The author spent his teenage years under the benevolent guidance of the internationally renowned Jain scholar Dr. A.N. Upadhyeji. From his venerable guide, Parikh has imbibed a scholarly approach to Jainism. His long career as a Canadian academic has endowed him with a sense of perspective into the western world and its workings. Add to this a natural flair for writing, and you have a very good book on Jainism, and its teleology in the modern world. The book is lovingly written, beautifully produced on art paper and very reasonably priced.
