Science and the Indian Tradition (India in the Modern Worldá)

"During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, India experienced an intellectual renaissance that owed as much to the influx of new ideas from the West as to traditional religious and cultural insights. This book examines the effects of the introduction of Western science into India, and the relationship between Indian traditions of thought and secular Western scientific doctrine. It charts the early development of science in India, its role in the secularization of Indian society, and the subsequent reassertion, adaptation and rejection of traditional modes of thought. This book will be of interest to scholars of Indian history and philosophy, historians of science and those interested in the interactions between Western and Indian traditions of intellectual thought."--Jacket.
