I have benefited greatly by reading the many books written on the great epic, the Ramayana by many well-known writers. In particular, some of the material in the Introduction can be found in Ramayana of Goswami Tulsidas by S. P. Bahadur and Ramayana by C. Rajagopalachari.

In addition, I want to thank my brother Chi. A. V. Narasimhan for patiently reviewing the drafts and making valuable suggestions and comments.
