The Laws of Manu is a sacred text that is considered one of the most important and authoritative sources of Hindu law and ethics. It is a collection of teachings and rules that were believed to have been handed down by the ancient Hindu sage Manu, and it covers a wide range of topics, including social and religious customs, family law, and moral conduct. This particular edition, The Sacred Books of the East V25, was translated by F. Max Muller and is part of a larger series of translations of important Eastern religious texts. Muller's translation is considered one of the most accurate and reliable translations of The Laws of Manu available in English. The book provides readers with a fascinating insight into the ancient Hindu legal and ethical system, as well as a deeper understanding of Hinduism as a whole.1886. Translated with extracts from seven commentaries. The Sacred Books of the East series, comprising fifty volumes, has translations of key sacred texts of Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam. The series was edited by the famous linguist Max Muller, who also produced many of the translations and were the foundational documents for the new discipline known as the comparative science of religions.
