Reviewer: by C. Alex Alexander, Independent Scholar, Washington, DC

With stellar originality and great clarity, Being Different adroitly demands that scholars and interfaith leaders accept the virtues of respecting the differences among religious traditions and not merely “tolerate” them in the name of interfaith solidarity. This book is a must-read for those truly interested in understanding the dharmic worldview which is distinctly different from the self-serving “universalism” of the West.
