gauhati yunivarsiTI jarnala, gauhatti (AsAma)nA abhiprAya ! Jainism in Gujarat (1100 to 1600 A. D) by Chimanlal Bhailal Sheth, M. A., L L B., B. T. Ahmedabad. Published by shri Bigay devsur Sangh, Pydhoni, Bombay-3. 1953 p. p. 282 Rs. 5 In the eight chapters of Jainism in Gujart. prof. Chimanlal Bhailal Sheth traces the growth of Jainism in Gujarat for five centuries from 1100 A. D. to 1600 A. D. The author has derived his materials from authoritative primary and secondary Sources and he has ably established his thesis that Jainism was in a flourishing Condition in Gujarat during the period under review, receiving the patronage of the rulers of Gujarat, their ministers, and the leading citizens of the state, merchant princes, ladies of the aristocracy and the generous public. The book throws interesting light on the political and cultural history of Gujarat during the ascendancy of Jainism. Jainism was so deeply rooted in the heart of the people that even political disruptions could not disturb the full vigour of the religion. It not only survived the onslaught of Alauddin khilji, emper or of Delhi but it also spread in and around Delhi and the Jain monks and scholars were honoured by Akbar The great, Moghul Emperor. The Jain monks were eminent Scholars and they wrote valuable treatises of various types, such as
