Description

In a series of essays, Ashok Da. Ranade attempts to examine Indian music in dimensions offered by various disciplines such as education, history, religion, yoga, popular culture, mass media, philosophy, musicology and studies of regional contribution to the overall Indian achievement.

Some of these essays have been published in national and international journals - but all of them have been re-written to enable inclusion of new data and tightening of presentation.
