Best books to learn Understanding Hinduism, in order

Hinduism is less a single system than a family of traditions, which makes a broad, careful overview essential before any one strand makes sense. Start with the shape of its scriptures, gods, and core concepts, then go deeper on karma, dharma, and the major philosophies, then the diverse living traditions—reading respectfully, since the diversity is the point, not a problem to resolve.
