  Siva, one of the great Hindu gods, spends his time playing dice with his wife, to whom he habitually loses. The result of the game is our world, which turns the god inside-out and changes his internal composition. This book attempts to understand the logic implicit in this theology of play, fragmentation, divine self-knowledge and love.
