This book looks at Indian art. It looks at various forms of artistic expression employed by the Indian people. It also looks at the various festivals held by the Indian people and the roles that these festivals hold in the greater community. It helps to explain why the Indian people behave in the way that they do from a personal perspective. This source is very useful to me. There are various aspects of my own culture which I do not understand. This book will help me gain a broader perspective of these aspects. It will also help me gain a clearer picture of artistic expression in the Indian community and how it relates to the greater Indian culture.

This book takes a look at Indian culture from the family and society point of view. It looks at the various roles that people were given in the Indian community based on their gender and their general stature in the community. It also looks at the family and the role that each family member held as well as their responsibilities to themselves as well as to the family as a whole. This source will help my analysis in terms of personal reflection. It will help me to determine the role that I personally hold in my family as well as my community and what is incumbent of me as a result of these roles.

This book takes a broad look at Indian civilization.

It also explains some elements of the Indian culture that may be taken for granted by modern civilization. The book also goes as far as to look at the impact of Indian culture on the modern world with relations to aspects such as dressing and architecture. This source will be very important to my review. It will help me gain a broader perspective of my tribe both in the past as well as in the present.
