"The book is divided into 3 parts. Part one analyzes the concept of dharma in Hinduism in its socio-ethico-religious meanings. Part two examines de Nobili's use of the complex concept of dharma in Christian theology. Part three represents a synthetic summary of de Nobili's understanding of dharma in Hinduism and his adoption of the concept into Christianity. It includes an evaluation of de Nobili's encounter with Hinduism in the light of Vatican II, the beginning of whose great insights are already found in de Nobili."
