It is for the first time that a complete critical edition of the Satapathabrahmana of the Kana School of the Sukla Yajurveda alongwith its English translation has been published. This edition has taken into account the readings available in a few more manuscripts, besides those in the published edition in Telugu script, which were not vailable to Prof. Caland who brought out a critical edition of its first seven Kandas. It is also the first attempt at providing a complete English translation. No doubt the texts of the Satapatha of the Madhyandina and Kanva School do not differ much from Kandas VIII to XVI and Prof. Eggeling’s translation of the former is available. Still a fresh attempt at translating the latter portion was felt necessary as a result of detailed discussions with traditional scholars who are actively engaged in Srauta sacrificial performances. Textual Notes to substantiate the choice of particular readings; a section under the heading Vimarsa discussing certain selected topics arising out of a study of the text; an exhaustive list of contents, Brahmana-wise, and a Glossary of technical terms are some of the additional features of this attempt.
