Abstract
THE “Broadway Oriental Library”, of which this work is one of the initial issue, will meet a very real need if it follows the line suggested in the general introduction. It is primarily intended for those who are interested generally in the results of Oriental studies rather than in their technical and highly specialised details. Oriental studies are at present not well served in this respect, especially as regards India. Much material of the highest value to the student of culture is rendered difficult of access because of the form in which it is cast.
