Excellent!. There are no ratings given for quality (although I'd have to assume all fifty titles should be considered highly recommended by virtue of their inclusion in the book) and relatively few illustrations. If you want a cute coloring book with a pull out poster, this book is fine; if you are looking for a paper growth chart, as I was, it is the wrong book.. I offer my thanks to Mr. excellent art and story. Content and delivery11. The book is well organized, clear and simple. The book was inspiring. Sadly, there are too many books of this quality. That's not a big deal to the amateur but for the professional it's a pretty big flaw and would have given it a higher rating.. The book is interesting, sometimes whimsical and always fascinating.

Barend AThe hero Rama's primary purpose in the battle is to rescue the abducted princess Sita and destroy the demon king. This sixth volume in the critical edition and translation of the Valmiki Ramayana includes an extensive introduction, exhaustive notes, and a comprehensive bibliography.. However, the confrontation also marks the turning point for the divine mission of the Ramavatara, the incarnation of Lord Visnu as a human prince, who will restore righteousness to a world on the brink of chaos. The Yuddhakanda contains some of the most extraordinary events and larger-than-life characters to be found anywhere in world literature. The book ends with the gods' revelation to Rama of his true divine nature, his emotional reunion with his beloved wife, his long-delayed consecration as king of Kosala, and his restoration of a utopian age. The sixth book of the Ramayana of Valmiki, the Yuddhakanda, recounts the final dramatic war between the forces of good led by the exiled prince Rama, and the forces of evil commanded by the arch demon RavanaThere's even a discussion of Yuddhakdikanda's cinematic qualities. The extensive annotation considers variant passages. Specialists will find in the annotations an endless mine of valuable information that will quickly become the foundation of any further research on the Yuddhakanda, and the rich and extremely useful index will facilitate access to this book. "An 118-page scholarly introduction and 1,161 octavo pages of back-matter annotations, bibliography, glossary, and index support, but don't intrude upon, the body of the text. To my mind, this is a remarkable achievement. Smith, Religious Studies Review"The translation admirably succeeds in pursuing its 'twin goals of accuracy and readability.' The volume opens up the epic battle book to new readers and gives them the closest thing they could get to what the original taste and texture of the text must have been, without making it inaccessible. A person's education cannot be complete until he or she reads how Rama kills Ravana, as vividly told in this volume."--Yigal- Title : Ramayana Of Valmiki: An Epic Of Ancient India (Princeton Library of Asian Translations), Vol. VI, Yuddhakanda
