Shelley Brown, Neil Z. Miller. Kalpa Tree Press, $49.95 (1128pp) ISBN 978-0-9706368-0-5
In Centered in Truth: The Story of Swami Nitya-swarup-ananda, Vedanta devotee Shelley Brown profiles the Indian monk who founded the Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture in Calcutta. Volume 1 is a biography (or more accurately, a hagiography) of the swami and his efforts, while volume 2 is a collection of his selected writings and lectures, alongside the fond reminiscences of friends. This is a loving, if prolonged, tribute.
