Encyclopedia of Indian Proverbs (9 Vols.)

Proverbs are merciless in their criticism of life, and they always aim at putting things right. In proverbs lies buried an endless store of criticism, encouragement, humour, sorrow and complaint, refferring to all classes of mankind from the unborn chidl to the grey-haired veteran. This first-of-its-kind collection of Indian proverbs from all major ethenic groups and regions will surely fill a collosal gap in documenting this important area of study.
