The Hindu Self and its Muslim Neighbors sketches the contours of relations between Hindus and Muslims in Bengal. The central argument is that these relations are marked by various patterns of amicability and antipathy which emerge at dynamic intersections between Hindu self-understandings and social shifts on contested landscapes.

The book is a thematic study of Tagore's conceptual project of harmonizing the one and its many across several fields such as spirituality, aesthetics, social existence, and others.
