| Abstract |
"In this volume, twelve scholars focus on the challenges of preserving and editing the writings of a leading but deceased religious figure. The authors examine editorial authority and overreach, noncompliance with scholarly standards, and untransparent editorial changes that have arisen in the books of the Indian master, Swami Prabhupāda"-- Provided by publisher. |
