Title: India and beyond
Description: When friends and colleagues were asked to contribute to this volume in honour of the renowned scholar Frits Staal, they submitted studies which they thought best reflected the many fields of interest to which Frits Staal has devoted his life. These comprise ritual in its global, linguistic and anthropological contexts, as well as his other great academic interests - grammar, philosophy, religion and science. Staal is noted for his ability to cover a formidably wide area of study whilst retaining a remarkable depth of analysis, and this is reflected in the contents of this work.
