This can proudly claim to be most reliable guide to Sri Sankara's philosophy. This gives  a keener insight into the Advaita philosophy of which Sankara is the unrivalled exponent. The rendering of the Bhashya into English which is faithful to the original, the footnotes and explantory notes are as illuminaating as they reflect the grasp and critical judgement of the author. Needless to state that this book is the product of investigations and studies by the author and that every sincre student of philosophy will find it most intstructive and beneficial.
