Academic Hinduphobia is a 2016 book written by Rajiv Malhotra which criticises what it considers to be a branch of pop psychology pioneered by indologist Wendy Doniger and her students, notably Jeffrey J. Kripal and Paul Courtright.[1] Malhotra says that Hindus are routinely characterised as misogynists, oppressive, anti-minority, irrational and violent.[1] The book was inaugurated by Dr. Subramanian Swamy at an event at India International Centre at New Delhi on 10 July 2016.[2]
The book was published by Voice of India, a controversial publishing house.
