Description
Summary:"This book collects fifteen essays and book sections about the Jesuits in India written over a period of more than thirty years. Many of these pieces, unavailable for years, now appear together for the first time.

The volume looks back into this long missionary history, but Clooney's eye is also on the question of relevance today: How ought interreligious learning take place in the twenty-first century?"--
