Linguist Lauds Bhagavad-gītā As It Is

Dr. William F. Shipley, professor of linguistics at the University of California (Santa Cruz), has this to say about the book widely known as "the essence of all Vedic knowledge": "The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust edition of the Bhagavad-gita As It Is [by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada] proves to be an inspiration and a delight… This is a beautiful book, subtly combining excellent scholarship with a reverent sensitivity."
