Description: "The American Religions Collection, one of the largest collections of materials on alternative religious movements and practices in the world, offers thousands of hard-to-find serials relating to twentieth-century nontraditional religions and splinter groups of larger religious bodies in North America. The collection was built by J. Gordon Melton, the foremost scholar of nontraditional American religions in America ... Eastern religions : Hinduism, Sikhism, and Sant is drawn from the American Religions Collection and features over 70 rare serials on Hinduism (and related groups like Hindu/Yoga), Sikhism and Sant Mat in the United States and from those countries that have influenced the movement. The majority of the publications are in English ... Publication dates range from the 1930s through present, with the bulk of the titles published in the last forty years"--P. v.
