Handbook of Hindu Economics and Business
http://www.amazon.com/Handbook-Hindu-Economics-Business-Hrishikesh/dp/148398088X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1366075606&sr=8-1&keywords=handbook+of+hindu+economics
Description from the website
The innovative Handbook offers 23 state-of-the-art peer-reviewed essays by
leading international authorities summarizing evidence-based research on ancient
and modern India. For example, Kautilya's Economics text published some 2000
years before Adam Smith is shown to include ideas in Marx's Labor Theory of
Value, UN's Human Rights, optimization, etc. Hindu India topics include: beef
eating, astrology, rituals, sacraments, pilgrimages, guilt-free pursuit of
wealth and pleasures, caste system's huge costs and benefits in nurturing
entrepreneurship, charity, Hindu Law, gender issues, overpopulation problem,
yoga for business management and human capital growth. The scholarly essays
provide a unique reference work for students, teachers, businessmen, India
investors and general readers. Michael Szenberg, editor of The American
Economist wrote: "Hindu Economics and Business Handbook is an engaging and
informative survey of the economics of Hinduism. I highly recommend it. Jagdish
Bhagwati of Columbia University said "… interesting collection … will be widely
read" Prof. Panchamukhi, Former Chairman, Indian Council for Social Science
Research, New Delhi and editor of Indian Journal of Economics wrote: "..
systematically arranged into different themes and chapters ...Protection and
prosperity, Importance of animals, Four-fold Objectives of Life, Hindu Social
Corporate form, Ayurvedic Medicines, Impact of Rituals, (etc.)...perceptive
articles on the recent thoughts on development and governance ...extremely
valuable reading material...the most useful addition to the literature" Prof.
Rishi Raj of CCNY, president of SIAA, wrote: "...many methods and strategies
..(by).. Hindu economists are desperately needed to help solve the present day
world economic crisis." Narain Kataria, President of Indian American
Intellectual Forum wrote: "...review of contrasting viewpoints... This unique
reference work edited by Prof. Vinod belongs not only in every public library,
but also in the home of everyone interested in India, including non-Hindus and
international investors."
