Eminent scholar and academic Dr K S Radhakrishnan’s book, Epistemology and Aesthetics of the Mahabharata, is a philosophical study of the epic intended to expose its epistemological infrastructure and aesthetic content. The Vedic tradition has formulated a unique epistemology, which is different from the Eurocentric epistemology. The book successfully busts the myth propagated by Western scholars and their Indian counterparts that the Mahabharata is a gospel of war. It is a Gita of peace and harmony.
