This illustrated book describes how these multi-disciplinary centers of learning existed in several forms such as forest universities, brick-and-mortar universities and temple universities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It examines the funding for these citadels of learning and their graduation ceremonies. The process by which India's ancient systems of education helped to fuel a knowledge revolution around the world with its manuscripts, forming the basis for monographs and academic papers, is explained with references. The marauding incursions by Muslim invaders, which disrupted the idyllic world of university learning in India, followed by European colonization, which led to further erosion and degeneration of India's traditional learning systems, have been taken up in some detail. Readers will get a snapshot view of India's education system down the ages from ancient to modern times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sahana Singh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1947586521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947586529\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Notion Press, Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/19\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.19d","brand":"Sahana Singh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994361102591,"sku":"9781947586529","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_840e3fa0-8bec-4966-a23f-cc51147fa00e.jpg?v=1683329688","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-educational-heritage-of-ancient-sahana-singh-9781947586529","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
