This book reflects the understanding and prejudices of a particular period of history and should be viewed as a curious book as such.
A curious book indeed ! History repeats itself.we have many such prejudices on religions and culture cropping up now and then. A funny coincidence is that economic well being is proportional to the increase in prejudice. has anyone done a study on this?
Sir(s), Will someone be kind enough to suggest an alternate site for downloading the PDF. The abovementioned link is not working.
