About the Book:


The Oxford India Gandhi looks beyond the plaster-cast image of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, the Mahatma. Gandhi’s autobiography ends in the late 1920s, several historic years before his assassination in 1948. This book seeks to fill that void left by Gandhi himself. Edited by Gopalkrishna Gandhi, the book tells Gandhi’s story in his own words-the story of his life as he himself might have narrated it to a grandchild.

I hope that this book by Ambassador Nazareth will contribute in spreading and strengthening the important message that the long-term interests of peoples and countries can be realised through the pursuit of truth and non-violence, and the practice of compassion and humanitarian service.
- HH the Dalai Lama


About the Book:

An ‘apostle of non-violence’ is probably the most popular description of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, but is it the most accurate one?

Former ambassador Alan Nazareth, a globally recognised scholar on Gandhian thought, elucidates in this book on how Gandhi was much more than that; how the essence of his ideology was a rare and distinctive combination of truth and non-violence-a pro-active, passionate and path-breaking approach, rather than a passive absence of violence. His biggest contribution, in fact, was to channelise the spirit of self-sacrifice in a revolutionary drawn to violence and convert it into a soul force. This, in turn, led to an unprecedented thought revolution which not only resulted in India's independence but sounded the death knell for European imperialism worldwide on one side and the most significant social reforms on the other-his work in the elimination of Untouchability, feudalism and Indenture system is unparalleled. ...READ BOOK REVIEW
