520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc It is natural and obvious that a book of this sort ought to find its own time and context. And so, it is not long overdue. In fact, it is timely - kairos - the opportune moment, which is right and fitting. To write about Christianity from underside and to dissect it especially the failing, faltering, and falling of Christianity and institutionalized church should have intellectual acumen, in-depth know-how in the subject, well-versed in the usage and application of 'integrated method', with apt analysis and evaluation.<br/><br/>This book is supported by a large casts such as religion vis-à-vis Christianity, church, its institutions and its subsidiaries, and BR Ambedkar. All these casts enriched the process through which it came into being. Unable to find plausible reasons, solid critique or viewing from underside the duo Christianity in India and its auxiliary-Church should never be attempted. Nonetheless, I wanted to know the reasons (growth or otherwise) by raising a question: Has Christianity failed in India?<br/><br/>This is indeed the central question that the book is deeply enmeshed with. To approach and to respond to this question a scholar of par-eminence B R Ambedkar, a renowned organic public intellectual and pragmatist has been identified. In and through his lens a query that has been raised and launched is comprehensively viewed, analyzed, and evaluated. It's going to be an eye-opener to many, especially to those who have not read or heard BR Ambedkar.<br/><br/>Hardly have we heard in church history or history of Christianity or mission history lectures or searched in the libraries for a person or scholar who delves or grapples to a central question posed and the ways with which he wrestles, interrogates, and unpacks to which this book has been waiting to be written.
