      abstract = {This volume examines Western India's contributions to the  spread of ideas, beliefs and other intangible ties across  the Indian Ocean world. The region, particularly Gujarat  and Bombay, is well-established in the Indian imaginary and  in scholarship as a mercantile hub. These essays move  beyond this identity to examine the region as a dynamic  place of learning and a host of knowledge, tracing the flow  of knowledge, aesthetic sensibilities, values, memories and  genetic programs. Contributors traverse the fields of  history, anthropology, agriculture, botany, medicine,  sociology and more to offer path-breaking perspectives on  Western India's deep socio-cultural impact across the  centuries. Western India emerges as a pivotal region in the  maritime world as a transmitter of knowledge.},
