Hinduism for Today is part of a series of texts designed to fit the SCAA model syllabuses, which emphasise "learning about" and "learning from" religion. Each book consists of 29 two-page spreads with readable text that is highly illustrated and supported by activities. Each book has a one-page glossary and a one-page index. Hinduism for Today explores the ways in which Hindus approach deep questions about the meaning of life and how this affects their daily living.
