This new offering in the comprehensive collection of Panikkar’s work brings together in the first of two volumes the English-language version of Panikkar’s important work on Cultures and Religions in Dialogue. As always, Panikkar seeks to bring together East and West without compromising the integrity of the traditions of each. Enthusiasts of Panikkar will find much to enjoy in this deep reading of one of the world’s great religious heritages, but so too will the newcomer find much intellectual profit in Panikkar’s methods—always comparing, contrasting, and offering new ways of understanding the traditions he studies.
