After the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita, the Srimad Bhagavata is one of the most authoritative of Indian scriptures. Complete text, verse by verse English translation, and elaborate introduction to each of the 4 volumes, notes on select topics, glossary of philosophic terms and general index

-Swami Vivekananda
