Daniel Jeyaraj Theological Book Review Professor John Hinnells' masterful work summarizes the fruit of his 20 years of research on, among, and with the Zoroastrians in diaspora...In eleven fascinating chapters he explores the history and contributions of the diaspora Zoroastrians to various fields of knowledge and human life...an exemplary work that will shape all future investigations on global Zoroastrianism.
Yuhan S. D. Vevaina, JRAS The breadth and depth of this book reflect the 250,000 miles of travel logged by the author in researching it. One can confidently state that the incredible effort and dedication to bring this book to press twenty years after the original lectures have not been in vain.
Almut Hintze, THES an awesome piece of research, the fruit of 30 years of study... A ground-breaking contribution not only to the study of Zoroastrianism but also to the debate on migration and diasporic communities. This is a book that nobody working in Zoroastrian or diaspora studies can afford to ignore.
Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, Volume 69, Issue 2 ...an awesome piece of research...an important, indeed ground-breaking, contribution not only to the study of Zoroastrianism but also to the debate on migration and diaspora communities. This is a book which nobody working in Zoroastrian or Diaspora studies can afford to ignore.
Numen, Volume 53 ...very detailed and rich accounts that are based on an unusually vast array of source materials...a unique testimony to the accomplishment of one of the pioneer students of religious diaspora, possessing an incomparably intimate knowledge of the people he studies.Övrig information
