<P><B>From the lens of Magnum''s Abbas - the mystical world of the Hindu revealed, from ancient rites to contemporary beliefs</B></P><P>This latest in Abbas''s transcendent series of books on major world religions, featuring ritualistic elements - wind, water, earth, and fire, magic, the spiritualism of animals - to explore the mysteries of the Hindu faith. Shot over three years in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bali, Abbas''s images examine the enigmatic beliefs of sub-sects such as Sikhs and Jains, alongside the everyday life of Hindus, and extend beyond his characteristic black-and-white work to include a series of colour photographs - in his words: ''In India, colour was a temptation I couldn''t resist.'' The result is this sumptuous volume, a must-have for collectors and armchair travellers around the globe.</P>
