Series A, Volume III. The third installment of a Census of the Exact Sciences in Sanskrit,Ó which provides all available bibliographical information concerning works in jyotihsastra & related fields & biographical information concerning their authors. Jyotihsastra is traditionally divided into 3 skandhas or branches: hora or genethlialogy & other forms of horoscopic astrology, ganita or mathematics & mathematical astronomy, & samhita or divination. This vol. is devoted to those authors whose names begin with a cerebral (c, ch, j, & jh), a reflexive (t, th, d, & dh), or a dental (t, th, d dh, & n). Preceding the material relating to these authors is a section supplemental to vols. I & II. This section contains abreviations of new periodicals & series that have been consulted, a bibliography of books & articles that have appeared or have been belatedly noticed since vol.
