<p>"Scholars around the world have long recognized the need to expand the study of Sikhism which has frequently been imbedded in broader works on Indian tradition and religion. This book presents a rationale for looking at Sikhism as an independent religious tradition, provides a background for previous work in the area, and outlines possible directions for future scholarship in the field. The authors of the essays represent some of the foremost scholars of the field in North America. They capably establish that there is a need to develop this area of scholarship further, providing suggestions for possible directions that can be undertaken in the field."—Jane Singh, University of California at Berkeley</p>
