In this book  we pick up the threads of Hindu practice evident in the Indus-Sarasvati civilization  which was the largest and in many ways the most advanced of the ancient civilizations. From there we trace the development of Hinduism through the early empires of India  a time of great advances in science  architecture  art and literature during which Europe was experiencing the Middle Ages. Then came the years of trial by invasion  followed by colonization and finally  in the 20th century  independence from the British Crown. Throughout these periods of history  we highlight the people  philosophical ideas and religious practices that are key to the Hindu religion today. While the text is written for sixth grade social studies classes in US schools  it is also suitable for high school classes. It has even been used in college course work  due to its refreshingly accurate  terse but comprehensive presentation of the world s most ancient faith.
