Dumont on Religion
Louis Dumont was a prominent anthropologist and sociologist whose work - notably on Indian society - influenced the study of religion. 'Dumont on Religion' introduces Dumont's work on kinship studies, structural theory, and his views on idealism.

The book also presents the ethical implications of Dumont's ideas and his comparison between the world views of modern and traditional societies.
