She assembles historical, inscriptional, numismatic, and stylistic evidence bearing upon the development of Ajanta, and considers the evidence in relation to other sites and in the light of the development of Buddhist thought. She discusses the evolution of areas of worship and the development of the Buddha image at Ajanta in relation to other Buddhist centers and provides a stylistic analysis of the effect of the Buddha image upon the narrative tradition in Buddhist art."--dj flaps.
