Summing up thirty years of groundbreaking investigation by a Finnish Sanskritologist and world's expert on Indus writing. By far the best, most comprehensive guide to the Indus script problem.
Edited by Asko Parpola, D.M. Pande and Petteri Koskikallio, in collaboration with Richard H. Meadow and J. Mark Kenoyer (June 2010). Covers new material, untraced objects, and collections outside India and Pakistan.
The first of a four volume study by the senior American Indus scholar, covering the history of attempts to decipher the script. A very thorough history by an author highly sceptical of all attempts so far and an incredibly valuable overview for anyone seriously into the script.
