This collection of essays both engages with Max Weber's work, and attempts to use his general approach, combined with detailed ethnography from Nepal and Japan, to attack critical questions in the anthropology and sociology of Buddhism and Hinduism. This book will appeal to specialists in religious studies, South Asia, Max Weber, and to anthropologists more generally.
