South Asian politics are exceedingly complicated and the religious factor is particularly complex. The increasingly violent role of religion in the region is a stark reality today.

The meticulously researched essays in the collection examine, explore and explain aspects of religious fundamentalism, self- righteous revivalists and murderous mayhem among the four major faiths of South Asia.
