It is for the first time that a complete critical edition of the Satapatha Brahmana of the Kanva School of the Sukla Yajurveda alongwith its English translation is published. This edition has taken into account the reading available in a few more manuscripts, besides those in the published edition in Telugu script, which were not available 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.
