The cover is offensive and you should read the book to see how much any one can bitch about India. I mean i have read lots of travelouges on India and books based in India . But the author HATES India and goes on to critcise it. I wish you all could read it and then write a critcisism at Amazon books!!!!

If she really doesn't like India, she still does not have any right to offend Hinduism like that, I'm suprised they even published it!

Another book that similiarly insults Hinduism is Sonia Singh's 'Goddess for Hire'. Having been written by an Indian you would think she'd help remove stereotypes, but instead she build up on them. Even worse is the fact that her storyline revolves around a snobby, bitchy female character who is an incarnation of Goddess Kali.
As for Holy Cow...i was turned off by the cover as well.
